Ringneck Session Ale (Extract Version)
This is the easy Extract Version of Ringneck Session Ale.
Easy drinking with great flavor. Drink this with some friends during a football game, over poker, or whenever.
This brew was designed to diplomatic; convert your friends and family over to homebrew with this one! Simple, cost effective, classic. I try to have this stuff available at all times.

Yeast: | WYeast 1056. I use a starter or rack onto an existing yeast cake. Make sure to aerate properly. Safale US-56 or Nottingham is an acceptable substitute if you prefer dry yeast. | |||||||

Carbonation: | I prime using 1.5 quarts of canned gyle saved from the boil. It's also great using corn sugar. You want 2.8 to 3.0 volumes of CO2. | |||||||
Tasting: | Malty and well-balanced. Super finish. Feel free to increase the hops slightly if you like it more bitter. |
