Charity Kits
DOCTOR METAL – Dark Lager (BJCP Cat. 4C)
Doctor Metal hosted the Metal Zone on 94 HJY. I used to listen to his show while a kid and racing BMX. In a tragic accident, Mike “Doc” Gonzalez died in one of the most tragic fires to ever hit Rhode Island, or any nightclub in this country to date. Heavy Metal in the eighties coincided with the color black. Therefore this black lager has been created in the molds of other world class dark lagers. Clean and crisp for a darker beer, this beer is mysterious in color and smooth. Hints of chocolate without any bitterness are layered throughout like a Metal band guitar solo. The hops are aggressive, but only enough to balance the overall experience. Enjoy cold with a burger fresh of the grill. Proceeds from the sale of this beer kit benefit the Doc Fund or some relation thereof, such as the Station Family Fund or the Michael J Gonsalves Scholarship Fund.
INGREDIENTS
Dark Crystal – 8 oz.
Munich – 4 oz.
Dehusked Carafa I – 2 oz.

Spalt hops – 2 oz.
Herzbrucker hops – ½ oz
Tettnang hops – ½ oz
Corn sugar – 5 oz (for priming)
Lager Yeast
PROCEDURE
Steep grains in the muslin bag in a pot of water for 20 minutes. Remove grains and rinse/sparge. Bring pot to boil and add both cans of liquid malt extract and enough water to get to 2-1/2 gallons.
