I have a can of John Bull Light and a can of John Bull Amber. (Yes, I know they don't make John Bull anymore.) I wanted to use it in a beer that I can drink by Christmas.
I was looking at Ed Wort's Bee Cave Brewery Haus Pale Ale (Extract Version) and saw it needed 6.5 lbs of Light LME. Can I just use the amber and expect a similar result? I figure I could add it at the end of the boil to reduce darkening. Perhaps I should just do a three gallon batch using only the Light?
Of course I am open for suggestions. If you have another successful recipe, with light and amber, please share it. I keg my beer so bottle conditioning is no problem.
Cheers - Thanks
