McEwans Export recipe?

LesTom · Jun 25, 2017

I've tried the search tool at the top of the forum, but, I've drawn a blank with a search for an all grain recipe for McEwans Export. It's one of my favourite beers and I'd love to have a crack at my own version of it. Can any of you fine brewers point me in the direction of a viable recipe for McEwans Export?

That's more like it. The previous post was for McEwans No.1 which is a fine ale in its own right but the ABV of over 7% might come as a little surprise to someone expecting to get the Export! :lol:
