Brooklyn Pennant Pale Ale ’55 clone

Digital and Plus Members Only

Pennant is a well-crafted pale ale brewed as a tribute to Brooklyn’s world champion baseball team of 1955. (That would be the Dodgers, who actually beat the Yanks in that crosstown series.)

Pennant pours with a dense light-beige head that sits on a chestnut-colored beer. The aroma is complex and malty, with a hint of freshly baked bread. The full malt flavor is balanced with a clean hop background. English hops provide a moderate bitterness that complements the smooth mouthfeel. The aftertaste is dry with a hint of hops.

Peanut Butter Cup Sweet Stout

Digital and Plus Members Only

I used peanut butter extract and cordial oil, but you could also use 6 oz. of natural peanut butter that you pour off the oil and add it at intervals during the boil just like the cocoa powder is added.
