Notes

Chimay Clone, but I am using different hops and a different yeast then what was in the recipe I found. Regarding my hops and IBUs. According to Brewer's Friend, Tettnanger are 4.5% aa and Cascade are 7% aa. I adjusted it down to 6% aa for the Cascade. I had the Belgian Candy Sugar on hand, and it was $4.99, but I added current Midwest Price less 10% to the recipe.
