Gordon Biersch clone recipe - did I miss it?

Wed Nov 16, 2005 8:08 am

Just wondering if Justin posted this somewhere else and I missed it but didn't Dan Gordon promise us a clone recipe for one of his beers? If it is already posted, can someone guide me to the right spot?

Jon has just recieved the recipe from Dan, and is converting it for posting. Should be up within a couple days.

I got a copy of the email from Jon. It seems a bit dark for a maibock, but that is what was on the email.

Here is what it works out to be for a 5 gallon batch:
