Of Younger’s four numbered Ales, No. 1 and No. 3 had the most legs, stretching past WW II. No.2 didn’t quite manage such a long run, being discontinued during WW I.

It’s another very simple recipe. It includes two types of pale malt. That’s about all I can say about the malt, as the description is an unreadable squiggle. If you were to hold a gun to my head, I’d guess that some was from foreign barley.

The hops are listed as Spalt, American, Californian and Kent. The quantity of Spalt, however, is so small that I’ve combined it with the Goldings. As in the recipe below, the bulk of the hops were from the USA.

Lasting 8 days, the fermentation was longer than most at Younger. Fairly warm, too, as most of it was in the high 60’s F.

The finished beer looks to be very pale and very bitter. It probably tastes like a modern DIPA.
