#22 Honeyless Cream Ale Recipe

22 - Honeyless Cream Ale

Inspired by Rogue's Honey Cream Ale.
Added 1-21-99

This is beer was inspired by Rogue's Honey Cream Ale. It was also brewed to see if the Pacman yeast produces a "musty" flavor that is found in their lighter ales.

This beer turned out to be pretty good. It doesn't have the "mustiness" like some of Rogue's lighter ales. The combination of the Gambrinus Honey malt and the Flaked Maze added a pleasant sweetness to the beer. The sweetness is balanced nicely with Crystal hops. This is a nice drinking ale. :-)
