Then, put 10 gallons of ale...and a cock into two quarts of sack, and put to it five pounds of raisins of the sun – stoned; some blades of mace, and a few cloves.

This jam, from the record “The World Ends: Afro Rock and Psychedelia in 1970s Nigeria”, is the official theme song of my upcoming Black Session Beer. I want to make a low-gravity lager-like beer with a chewy munich backbone, a hint of roastiness, and a hop jungle of aroma in the finish. Something between a Schwarzbier, a Cascadian Dark Ale, Moonlight Brewing’s “Death & Taxes”, and Full-Sail Session Black. Also, it must be something I don’t have to spend to much time lagering. After all, we don’t have much time left here on the precipice of the apocalypse, do we? Stay posted for a recipe that will do 70’s psychedelic girlband afrobeat justice.
