carbonation: 1.5 volumes of CO2
expected 3.7 % ABV

If you find that the beer is too sweet, try dropping out the light crystal and/or increasing the carbonation. If it’s too dry, increase the light crystal by a couple of ounces (or grams) or even add ½ lb (227 g) to the base malt to increase ABV. The additional alcohol shouldn’t affect the overall drinkability, but it will add a bit more sweetness!

Hops: (from https://byo.com/article/brown-ale/)
English Fuggles and Goldings are just right for these beers, though Target, Willamette, Liberty and Northern Brewer all give good results.
