Ingredients

  • 3 1/3 lb Plain light malt extract
  • 2 1/4 lb Maltose
  • 3/4 ounce Cascade hops (boil)
  • 3/4 ounce Cascade hops (finish) Cultured Sierra Nevada Yeast

Directions

  1. The maltose is a cheap rice-malt mix obtainable from oriental markets.
  2. Boil malt, hops, and maltose in 2-1/2 gallons of cool water. In last 2 min, add in the finishing hops. The yeast was cultured from a bottle of Sierra Nevada pale ale. By the next day, the yeast did not seem to start, so I added a packet of Vierrka lager yeast. Rack to secondary after one week. After another week, prime with 3/4 c. corn sugar and bottle. Color similar to any American lager. Tastes much better, very mellow. The goal was to brew 5 gallons of beer while only spending $10. This came to about $11. I'm not sure what drives me to such frugalness, but having grown up with American beer, sometimes I would rather have it with certain foods, like pizza.
