1. lb. 12 oz. Light malt extract
1 lb. Light dry malt extract

although only a 5 minute boil with eroca hops because of the bitterness factor and because they were also in the ferment stage I
would assume a higher ibu like maybe 20

.50 oz. Eroica (12% AA, 5 min.)
Yeast: cooper ale yeast started in the 4 oz of brown sugar water temp at

Carbonation: co2 infused for 6 hours at 10 psi in addition to the dextrose as mentioned above

nice malt after taste I expect flavour to mellow a bit more but I don't think it will last long enough .
