Using up some LME that is getting old, so made this (The Yeast is 09 2014 too).

So made a quick recipe to use it up.

I notice I have several Mr. Beer HME that are near dates too so I need to get busy and use them up

That sounds like a very refreshing and yummy brew.

Hope to see it on the first pour thread later.
