Here's one I make in 10 gallon batches & friends suck it down faster than I can brew it.

Despite fairly high alcohol, this beer is ready to begin drinking just a few weeks after brewing. Enjoy!

Ingredients: (for 10 gallons)

17# British 2 row (I use Marris Otter from Beeston Malting)
3# Belgian Munich (I know, it's not authentic, but it has a good slightly peaty-roasted flavor
1# 120L Crystal
1/4# chocolate malt
3 to 4 oz's 5.3 AAU Kent's Golding
Wyeast Scottish liquid yeast (make a good starter

Procedure:

One temp mash at 152F for 75 min's. Boil for 75 min's. Add hops & 1tsp irish moss 45 min's before end of boil. Beginning SG is 1062. Ending SG is around 1016.

Specifics:

OG: 1.062
FG: 1.016
