Hey folks,
Here are the details for the beer I brewed for the Spring 2017 competition focused on a local ingredient and creativity.
The local ingredient was Crosby's Molasses, instead of dark belgian candi sugar. I took the Molasses and baked it into cookies, following this recipe:

The cookies on their own were actually delicious for a low fat recipe!

Target OG: 1.066
4900 g Pilsner Malt
