Brew Day - Honey Nut Brown

This weekend a few of the guys got together for a brew lesson.  The subject: brewing the award-winning Crazy Bear Honey Nut Brown.  Award-winning you say with questioning raised eyebrows?  Yes, this recipe took 1st place in the English Brown Ales category at the Montgomery County (MD) Fair a few years back.  Hopefully we nailed it again, not just for its prize value, but because this happens to be one of my top favorite beers of all time.

O.G. - 1.055

Ingredients:

6 lbs. Amber LME
2 lbs. Minnesota Clover Honey
8 oz. Crystal 10L Malt and 4 oz. Chocolate Malt speciality grains
