This recipe was sent to me mistakenly by Austin Homebrew. All I know about the grain bill is that it has barley and flaked maize and weighs ten pounds. It is named Sand Dune Cream Ale on the label, but I changed the name because some people don’t like sand. They think it’s coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere. I rename it A Surprise to Be Sure, But a Welcome One, and I will be watching its fermentation with great interest.
