Notes

Normally not a style I brew, but this is a special ale for some who don't all have the most refined of palates for craft beer. Think of it as a gateway beer for the unrefined. Anyway, I might swap some of the 2-row for 6-row yet before brewing this, but I'm not certain yet.

Incidentally, this is not intended to be a clone of Wilco Tango Foxtrot the commercial beer, which is a nice though much different beer.
