Didn't use enough caramel malt on this the first time.
The first attempt is here: https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/1098356/northumbria-old-ale

The color was on the lighter edge, and there isn't a strong caramel/molasses or raisin flavor that I want. I assumed Maris Otter would help with the flavor but it really is only good at being bready/nutty.
