One reason why I love homebrewing is that I get to make styles I enjoy which I can’t regularly find on tap at the local pub. With everyone chasing the latest trends in craft beer I find it rare that a straight up “Stout” is on tap. That’s why I made this beer.
6 lb | Briess Brewer’s Malt 2-Row (1.8 SRM) |
6 lb | Thomas Fawcett Golden Promise Pale Malt (3.0 SRM) |
1 lb 5 oz | Muntons Chocolate Malt (425.0 SRM) |
1 lb | Flaked Oats (2.5 SRM) |
8 oz | Dingemans Aromatic Malt (19.0 SRM) |
4 oz | Muntons Roasted Barley (525.0 SRM) |
1.25 oz | Warrior 15% Alpha T-60 |
1 oz | East Kent Goldings 5% Alpha T-10 |
Nottingham Yeast Harvested from previous batches |
The end result? A 7.4% full bodied stout with chocolate, roast, and bitter finish. The next version of this I’ll probably dial back the bitterness and maybe ditch the roasted barley all together…
