Wylie's Scotch Ale

My second shot at a Scotch Ale recipe, my 11th all grain batch. This
one was a beauty. Nice sweet malty Scotch ale flavor but lacking the
dicetyl bite common to most Scotch ales. Many friends and family thought
this was one of my best batches this year.
Brewed on Monday, 11 August 97.
