Keepa Danish Beer

Submitted by Researcher

"This is a recipe from Sanpete Scenes (Gary Peterson and Lowell Bennion) page 144. It is from the early Danish settlers of Manti and Ephraim, Utah, and other surrounding communities. As found in a discussion on Keepapitchinin.org on August 31, 2010. I wouldn't suggest making this without doing some intensive research into food safe practices and perhaps consulting the current interpretation of the Word of Wisdom. :) The original recipe says "Brown 1 quart wheat in a 350° oven. Place wheat and 1-1/2 quarts clean, food-quality barley and 1/2 cup hops in a cloth sack. Boil in large pan until nutrients are removed from grain. Keep draining and add liquid until you have 5 gallons of stock. Place in a crock. Add 1 quart honey, 2 pounds raw, dark pure cane sugar and 2 dissolved yeast cakes. Let sit overnight and then bottle.""
