This is my first attempt at building a recipe from scratch. I'm looking to brew a nice, nutty brown ale with some vague chocolate and toffee undertones.
I don't want it too incredibly dark, however. The small amount of chocolate malt is just for taste, hopefully.
Think i'm on the right track for a 5-gallon batch?
6lb 8oz of US Pale Ale Malt
3lb 0oz of US Victory Malt
6.00 oz of US Caramel 40L Malt
4.00 oz of US Chocolate Malt
1.00 oz of UK Golding (45 Min From End)
1.00 oz of US Willamette (15 Min From End)
Wyeast 1272-American Ale II
