Classification: barleywine, extract, strong ale

With that much malt, the blow off was really really REALLY wasteful (that is making 4.75 gal in a 5 gal carboy.) I had to reboil and repitch the 2 gallons of foam that settled back out into nice wort.

I think 12# of syrup would have been sufficent.

Ingredients:

9# light syrup, (M&F)
6# amber syrup
4 oz hops to boil (Saaz, I think, but use your favorite)
2.5 oz hops to finish (Fuggles, again, use your fave)
Wyeast European Ale yeast
