Steam Beer

A recipe that mmmbeer and I used.

This is a recipe that we REALLY enjoyed. It was inspired by one of Chuck Collis’s recipes (brewd00d), we upped the crystal percentage, added a few lbs of Vienna malt, and used Saflager yeast. Hope you enjoy it too. California Commons is the style. Recipe is for 11 gallons.
