(not yet rated)
Beer Style: American Pale Ale, Herb and Spice, Specialty
Recipe Type: all-grain
Yield: 5 gallons
Description:
Just because a recipe is old doesn't mean it's not good. Our website has recipes spanning the last decade if not longer. There have been many advances in the art and science of brewing gluten-free beer during that time. So we decided to resurrect a recipe that was among the first few dozen recipes to be added to our recipes database. We modified a grain bill from a current recipe kit that we sell that also includes herbs and spices. The merger of both recipes makes for a great springtime ale to be enjoyed well into the hot summer months.
