This makes a nice American Pale ale similar to Seirra Nevada Pale Ale. Bittereness is in the moderate range so even your Bud drinking friends should like it.

Drink It Too Much Ale 3.3# Pale LME 3# Light DME 1# Crystal Malt (20L) 1# Light Honey 1oz Hallertauer Pellets (Boil - 45min) 1/2oz Hallertauer Plug (Flavor - 15min) 1/2oz Hallertauer Plug (Aroma - 15min Steep) Put the crushed Crystal Malt in a grain bag and put it in the brew pot with 2 gallons of water. Bring the water just to a boil and remove from heat. Steep the crystal for 15min. Remove the grain bag and sparge into brew pot with 1/2 gallon boiling water. Add the DME and LME to the 2 1/2 gallons of liquid in the brewpot and stir until dissolved. Bring the wort to a full boil. Add the ounce of hops pellets. I put them in a sanitized length of nylon stocking my wife was about to pitch. After 30min add the fi rst 1/2 ounce of plug hops. At 45 minutes remove from the heat and add the last 1/2 ounce of plug hops. Allow to steep for 15min. Strain into another pot and cool to pitching temperature. When cool add to primary containing 3 gallons of cool water and mix well. Pitch yeast starter. I normally use Wyeast #1272 American Ale II, but I have also used EDME Dry Ale yeast and it worked well also. Prime with 1 1/2cup DME.

Travo's Strong Buzz Dark Ale 10 pounds Dark LME 1 pound each 40L Crystal, Chocolate and Dark Grain 20 HBU's N. Brewer Bittering Hops 1 oz. Hallertau Aroma Hops Ale Yeast (Wyeast 1007 German Ale works great). Add grains to 2 gallons cold water, steep until temp reaches 170 degrees F. and remove. Allow water to boil, remove from heat, add extract, dissolve, and return to heat. Bring to boiling again, add 1/2 of the bittering hops, total boil time 75 minutes. 20 minutes before end of boil, add remaining 1/2 of bittering hops. 5 minutes before end of boil add 1/2 of aroma hops. Rack to fermenter, cool to less than 78 degrees F., pitch yeast. If using plastic bucket fermenter, add remaining aroma hops to fermenter. If using a carboy, either wait until primary fermentation subsides to add dry hops, or use a weighted hop bag. Ferment to completion, boil 125g bottling sugar in 2 pints of water, cool, and add to finished beer before bottling. Bottle, age for 3 - 4 weeks at room temp, then allow to cool to serving temp. and hold for a week. Makes a robust strong ale, very dark, great body, a meal in itself.
