Pale malt 6.5 pound(s) 2-row

Instructions

Purists may object to brown sugar in beer, but a careful tasting of Bass reveals brown sugar or molasses in the finish (not as strong as in Newcastle, but present). British malt can easily stand up to a bit of sugar, both in flavor and in gravity.

This is an all-grain recipe follow the instructions for an infusion mash in Papazian, or another text. The Northern Brewer hops are boiled for a full hour, the Fuggles for 1/2 hour, and the Fuggles finishing hops after the wort is removed from the heat, it is then steeped 15 minutes.
