I have absolutely NO idea what made me think of this beer recipe. A nice sunny warm Friday afternoon of course brings winter beers to mind, doesn’t it?!?

This was a lighter colored, dry and nicely spiced winter ale that really benefited from a long secondary. Enjoy!

Any clean fermenting yeast is fine, I think I used American Ale
