Ingredients:





     5 lb Klages lager malt


     4 lb Pale Ale malt


     1 lb Crystal malt (40 or 60 deg


          Lovibond)


   1/2 ts Irish moss


 1 1/2 oz Northern Brewer (alpha 8.0)


 1 1/2 oz Hallertauer (alpha 4.1)


          MeV High Temp Lager liquid


          Yeast






 Mash grains for 25 minutes at 125 degrees and 90 minutes at 150 degrees.


 Mash-out  for 10 minutes at 168 degrees. Sparge. Bring to boil  and  add


 Northern  Brewer  hops.  Boil  60  minutes.  At  last  minute  toss   in


 Hallertauer. Cool. Pitch yeast. Judges said it was perhaps a tad thin


 compared to Anchor but  otherwise OK and it took 2nd out of 30 amber beers


 at  the  Hudson  Valley competition last March. With MeV kaput, I recommend


 using a sturdy lager yeast or even an ale yeast for this one.
