Been given a tin of cascade spicy ghost. I know its not a good one from what I've heard but is there anything I can do too it to make it half ok?
Seems a shame to just bin it.
 
Here's an old post from another board which might help. I have never tried the ghost because of the bad reviews, but the recipes below don't look the worst

Cascade sells the Spicy Ghost as a summer/wheat style brew, so it's probably using a wheaty-flavour yeast.
Here's a couple of recipes from the website (when it was available):

Summer Blonde Style
1 can Spicy Ghost Draught
0.7 kg liquid wheat malt extract
0.5 kg light liquid malt extract
0.3 kg dextrose
0.3 kg maltodextrin (corn syrup)
10 gram Cascade hop pellets
10 gram Saaz hop pellets
use a wheat beer yeast (e.g.Safbrew T58)

Refreshing Chilled Summer Beer
1 can Spicy Ghost Draught
0.7 kg light liquid malt extract
0.5 kg dextrose
0.3 kg maltodextrin (corn syrup)
15 gram Cascade hop pellets (or a more bitter hop), added before fermentation (boil the pellets in 200-400 mL of water or 10% malt extract solution for 15-20 minutes, strain into the fermenter, press the liquid out of the hops)
10 gram Saaz hop pellets
 
How long ago did Cascade pull the pin on all their extracts?
 
Did they stop making extracts? Crazy!
