This is my tweaked Rogue Dead Guy clone made in Lowell, Michigan. I use Wyeast 1764 (Pacman) when available, but American Ale (WLP-001 or S-05) yeast will do. I will substitute Caramunich for Carastan when Carastan is unavailable.
This is my favorite brew. I try to keep one in the keg by brewing a new batch after tapping.

This is a delicious constant on tap at Phop's house. I've had it many of times and it's malty and refreshing!

Brewed on 10/18/14. OG 1.066, but used 1lb C45 instead of 1.5 # Carastan (C35). Also, using Mangrove Jack's M44 US West Coast dry yeast as a substitute for WYeast Pac-Man.
