So if any of you are familiar with the extreme brewing book by the guy from dogfish ale I was looking to make the A-Z brown ale that was in that book. My homebrew shop was short on ingredients so i am trying to hybrid the recipies between the two.

What he gave me was this:
- around a half pound of the crushed specialty grains and another half pound of some other grains that i now forget what it was but should be good for the recipie
- 2lbs of muntons light dried malt extract
-3.3lb of hopped amber liquid malt extract (muntons)
-1 pack of muntons dry ale yeast
-1oz cluster hop pellets
-1 oz uk first gold hop pellets

i also have another pack of safale us-05 dry ale yeast that i didnt end up using for another brew

i wanted to make a brown ale like the recipe from the book which was a maple brown sugar ale but am not particularly sure if i can pull that off with what ive got. i dont have to get a brown ale out of it, but i do want it to turn out good and was looking for some good advice. though i havent posted here before i have read and know you guys are awesome. thanks in advance.

oh and i cant quite figure out what kind of hops wer put into the liquid extract but the can says:
Typical anaylsis solids 80-82%
color 16-20
bitternes (probably only important part) 45-55
it also says it uses "the choicest english hops" so i assume its a blend of some cheap english hops

btw this would be the 5th or so batch ive done so im not a complete beginner but am by no means a pro. i usually do partial mash but one time i went for a super cheap all extract mexican beer

thanks again :mug: :tank:
 
Make sure you keep everything clean. The problem is - you're going to make great beer and you won't know what the recipe is to make it again.
