PHC American Barleywine

Brewed by members of Prairie Homebrewing Companions in Episode 23: Hoppy Halloween with Jamil Zainasheff. It was a group brew to celebrate Hoppy Halloween and the arrival of Jamil Zainasheff to Fargo, ND. This beer was awesome to watch being brewed.

Can you size this for a 5 gallon batch? ...or just divide everthing by ~8?

Brian - The pre-boil volume is 44 gallons, but the target final volume is 22 gallons, so more like divide everything by ~4.4 to scale it to 5 gallons ... 18 lbs pale malt, 1.25 lbs C-60, etc.
