To make it gingerbread, I have read that Mosher says the following: use a lightly hopped brown ale as a base and add 4gs of cinnamon, 2gs of ground ginger, 1g of allspice, and 1 gram of clove. Could I substitute the 1 gram clove with 1 gram of nutmeg? Does this seem like an adequate amount of spices for a 5 gallon batch? Thanks!
I found this recipe online for a brown ale (credit to JEMeeks) that is as follows:
10.5 lbs Pale 2-row malt
1.5 lbs Crystal 80
0.5 lbs Cara-pils
6 oz Chocolate malt
1.25 oz Cascade (AA 6%) - 60 min
0.5 oz Cascade (AA 4.1%) - 15 min
0.5 oz Centennial (AA 9.3%) - 15 min
0.5 oz Cascade (AA 4.1%) - 5 min
Nottingham yeast
