W.Younger?s Majority Ale (1937)

per Gallon

OG 136

A blockbuster of an ale made at the birth of an heir to the family for drinking at the 21st birthday party! The second wort makes an excellent old-ale with OG 50-55. The 1949 ale was similar but had a hop rate of 1 1/2 oz hops.

	7 lb Pale Malt,
	5 lb Carapils
	2 oz Goldings Hops

	Method No. 2(a). Extract 1 1/4 gallons of the strongest wort possible. If the SG is below 120, pre-boil the wort up to this value (measured cold) before adding hops and boiling for a further 1 1/2 hours.

	Mature for at least 2 years.
