An american brown ale so thick and malty, one can easily fall into it and become mummified, forever preserved in their favorite beverage. NOTE, this recipe didn't originally call for the Brown Sugar...I had an issue with mash efficiency (likely due to using softened water by mistake), so I had to supplement with brown sugar. If you make this recipe, aim for 72% and nix the brown sugar,
Dark brown, clear, half inch creamy white head Malty, yeasty, nutty Coffee, molasses, hay Great mouthfeel...full bodied, great carbonation By far the best brown ale I've ever made and quite possibly the best beer I've ever made.

Looks so good! I love the description. Save me a bottle.

This turned out really good and it just keeps getting better. Definitely better with age.
