Bourbon Ale Recipe

10 lbs Pale 2 Row
1.5 lbs Crystal 90
.5 lbs Dextrine Malt
1 lb Aromatic Malt
American Ale Yeast
.66 oz Chinook (60min)
.33 oz Chinook (burnout)

Single Infusion Mash at 156-158F

Add .5 quart of quality Bourbon at kegging or bottling.

For an interesting play on this make a Bacon Bourbon Infusion by cooking a whole pack of bacon and storing it in the bourbon for 1-2 weeks.  Strain the bacon out of the bourbon and put the infusion in the freezer to solidify the bacon fat.  Strain out the bacon fat and voila you have bacon flavored bourbon that will add a sweet and salty element to this bourbon ale.  Combine with your beer at bottling or kegging.
