CS6 - Brown Dog

[Stu McKinlay]

You won't miss this with the classy label... somehow this got called Brown Dog but it was actually named "Smokin' Beagles" in my promash files.  I prefer that... it's an attempt at a smoked American-style Brown (but NZ hops).

This was really just an excuse to use up a load of old smoked malt that I'd hung onto for ages and never used...  i was already gagging to brew Rex Attitude but the peat malt was still on its way.

Bearing in mind that I won't get out of bed for less than 80% smoked malt... here's the recipe:

85% Smoked 

10% CaraWheat

5% Carafa 2

Pacifica @60min (18ibu)

Pacifica @ 30min and 15min (2.5g/L each - 18 and 10ibu respectively)

Hey Stu, was this Bottle 'C ' ?
I've been dithering over Bottle C for some weeks, possibly a month or two
You know me, I'm not a big beer guy and I was looking for the right moment
This post prompted a taste. hints of smoke, possibly only because I'm looking for it

i can't remember what was what now but if it was the strongest it would have been the barleywine (no smoke).
