Clovey - The Unbrew!

"Too much flavor spoils the beer"
(Pilsner)

I started with a Pilsner malt extract and I added lot of cloves to get a superior spicy flavor.  The clove addition would have definitely kicked some ass but I guess I added a little too much.  I also added a light malt extract to increase the alcohol content but I guess I added the yeast too early and it died.  This is definitely an Unbrew.
Here is what not to do -
1. Grand Bohemian Czech Pilsner UME and HME
2. 1/2 lb of Light Malt Extract
3. Hops (I dont remember the name)
4. Urquell  Lager Yeast.

Since this pilsner is out, I am brewing another pilsner.  Hope the next one turns out better.
