How bout a hoppy brown ale?you could utitlize the chocolate, carapils, some crystal and caravienne with the LME and DME as the base.Bitter with the columbusthen do any combination of simcoe, amarillo, and columbus @ 20,15,10,5,0
Using what you have thereAll 8 lbs of your extract8 oz Chocolate8 oz Caravienne8 oz Crystal 604 oz Carapils1 lb Crystal 15Shoot for 60 IBU's or soIts a wide array of crystal....should be pretty complex. Janets Brown has 1.25lbs of Carapils and 1.25 lbs of Crystal 40 and its an amazing beer. So its sorta loosely based on that.

It calculated to be 1.082 OG and 1.021 FG which seem a little high for this style. Is that Ok considering how much hoppier this is going to be than a regular American Brown Ale. I was also thinking the extracts are going to ferment out further than that.

Extract has a tendency to end a little high anyway and add in all that crystal...
