I am also in the new brewing environment, I am picking up some equipment and thinking of maybe a nut brown ale. I have always respected the nut brown ale and the british that enjoy it, as it has a nice flavor and light aroma to it.
I have this recipe that seems to be a popular one with a few of the people at brew your own, should this be too big of a challenge for a beginning brewer? Code:
TableRock Nut Brown Ale (5 gallon/19 liter, extract with grains) OG = 1.054 FG = 1.015 IBUs = 18 Alcohol 5.3% by volume
Ingredients 6 lbs. (2.7 kg) Briess light extract syrup 1 lb. (0.45 kg) dextrin malt 0.5 lb. (0.23 kg) Carastan malt 6 oz. (168 g) brown malt 4 oz. (112 g) crystal malt (120 °L) 2 oz. (56 g) black patent malt 2 oz. (56 g) chocolate malt 5.8 AAU Willamette hops (bittering hop) (1.0 oz. (28 g) of 5.8% alpha acid) 1 tsp. Irish moss White Labs WLP001 (California Ale) or Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) yeast O.75 cup of corn sugar (for priming)
Step by Step Steep the six crushed grains in 3 gallons (11.4 liters) of water at 150 ºF (66 °C) for 30 minutes. Remove the grains from the wort, add malt syrup and bring to a boil. Add Willamette (bittering) hops, Irish moss and boil for 60 minutes. When done boiling, add wort to 2 gallons (7.6 liters) cool water in a sanitary fermenter, and top off with cool water to 5.5 gallons (20.9 liters). Cool the wort to 80 ºF (27 °C), heavily aerate the beer and pitch your yeast. Allow the beer to cool over the next few hours to 68-70 ºF (20-21 °C) and hold at these cooler temperatures until the yeast has fermented completely. Bottle your beer, age for two to three weeks and enjoy!
All-grain option: Replace syrup with 9lbs. (4 kg.) pale malt, mash your grains at 158 ºF (70 °C) for 60 minutes. Lower the Willamette hops to 0.75 oz. to account for full-wort boil.
