As discussed in the Welcome back Jayse thread, here is the recipe I've put together (using Designing Great Beers) for my first crack at an American Brown.
I've used the CaraMunich and Black mainly for colour and the fact I have a lot of CaraMunich to get through.
Still not sure on the yeast. I've listed 1026 but may go for WLP051 instead.
