Batch 14 - Not Plain Vanilla Cream Ale

So as a companion to the Christmas Beer.... Here's an American Cream Ale with vanilla added.


0.5 lb Briess Dextrin Carapils (30 min @ 155)

4.0 lb Pale LME
1 cup corn sugar (for Alc. w/o body)
1.0 oz. Willamette (4.6%) (60 min)

3.5 tbsp Vanilla Extract (15 min)

1.0 oz. American Hallertauer (3.6%) (5 min)

Wyeast American Ale smackpack #1056

OG: 1.035
FG: 1.008
ABV: 3.54%

*Note: This recipe is HORRIBLE.... maybe reduce to 0.5 tsp of Vanilla (or get rid of it altogether) and it may be OK.
