Ingredients

3 1/2 pounds barley malt syrup plain, dark extract
2 1/2 pounds barley malt syrup plain dark dried extract
3/4 pounds crystal malt
1/2 pound chocolate malt
2 ounces cascade hops
1 ounces willamette hops (finishing)
3 ounces ginger root freshly grated, from two to four ounces
1 package brewer's yeast
3/4 cups corn sugar

Directions

Add the crushed crystal and chocolate malts to 1 1/2 gallons of cold water and bring to a boil. When boiling has commenced, remove the grains and add the malt extracts. (Do not allow the grains to remain in boiling water, as this will add an "ashy" taste). Dissolve the extracts fully and add the boiling hops and freshly grated ginger root and continue to boil for 60 minutes. Add the finishing hops during the final 1-2 minutes of the boil. Sparge into the fermenter and cold water. Force cool, pitch yeast, and bottle when fermentation is complete.

Reviews

I made this recipe last year and it is bar far the best home brew I have ever tasted. The ginger gives it a unique "snap". (pardon the pun) I coulsd drink it all day!

Tortellini And Spinach Stew

Very quick and yummy. Good use for leftover cooked spinach and homemade chicken stock! I added some garbanzo beans too, and it came out almost like a minestrone. ( I would add more stock next time, though.)
