Source Notes:
Page 408. The recipe makes use of a particularly nice malt from Briess Malt & Ingredients Co. in WI; it has a very toasty, bread crust and graham cracker flavor without harshness. The recipe can be made more English by adding more crystal malt, or more American by changing up the hops and increasing the bitterness. I prefer this version, which is right down the middle. The dark chocolate malt is also one of my favorites, but I use it here mainly for color.
