Hello Future,

Brewing a pale based on Geary's Pale from Portland, ME with Willy and Jamie tonight.

Grain bill:
8 lbs American 2-row
12 oz Crystal 60L
3 oz Chocolate malt

Mashed in 3 gallons of water for 90 minutes at ~152 degrees Fahrenheit. Sparged with an additional two gallons at ~170 fahrenheit.

Hops:
1 oz Mt. Hood  60 minutes
0.5 oz Cascade  60 minutes
1 oz Tettnanger  15 minutes
0.5 oz Fuggles   10 minutes
0.5 oz Cascade   1 minute
0.5 oz Fuggles    1 minute

Boiling for an hour as we speak, then we'll cool the beast and pitch some Windsor British Ale Yeast.

Ideas for names? Tromboner Ale is the current frontrunner

Love,
Deez
