  • 1 can (3.3 lbs) of light malt extract
  • 1 can (3.3 lbs) of dark malt extract
  • 1 packet of belgian yeast

This was my first batch of beer. My Dad and I started it together, though we forgot to check the specific gravity when we did.

The beer turned out pretty good, though I don't like one of the flavors. Apparently it's the yeast that added that flavor, because if the beer is left to settle, and I'm careful about pouring, I can minimize that flavor.
