6-5/8 lb Munton & Fison dark malt
Extract

3 ts Gypsum
1 oz Cascade hops
1/2 ts Irish moss

Spruce Beer Preparation
Boil malt and boiling hops for 1 hour. In last 10 minutes add the 1 ounce of Cascade finishing hops and the Irish moss. In the last 2 minutes add the spruce essence. Chill and pitch yeast. My tasting notes on this say that at 2-1/2 months after bottling it was fair. This tells me that it was unremarkable. My recollection is that it was drinkable but unexciting. Perhaps the dark extract overwhelmed the spruce and more spruce essence should have been used. Where the bottle says Sufficient for 8 gallons of spruce beer they may mean for a somewhat lighter beer.
