1lb Flaked Rye
1oz Cluster 60min
1oz Cluster 30min

8.8lbs - 4L
2lbs Clover Honey (at high krausen)
1.1lb CaraHell 15L 500g
1.1lb Caraboheimian L80
0.5lb melanoidin malt

Any advice? Or looking good...
I'm shopping at Brew Time in Hamilton, they have limited selection on grains but a good price on extract, if any one knows whats around the area would appreciate it I will be visiting in a few weeks

I haven't been on this site in many years, but glad to see my oldest recipe is still relevant.
I have since converted to all grain, and I rarely see Special B anymore, but this is still a neighborhood favorite.
Cheers

Welcome back. That recipe looks nice. Can you post your all grain version?

I can find Special B online and it is one I use frequently. I can't describe the flavor it imparts but it has been used in many of my best beers.

I have a couple of pounds, maybe it is time for a recipe using some.
