I ran out of stout after giving most of a keg to some friends for their housewarming party, so I needed to brew something dark to keep on tap. I was really psyched on how this turned out last time, so I'm repeating that recipe.
RECIPE
(click the link, I didn't feel like retyping it!)
Notes:
Brewed on August 4 in the afternoon. A nice sunny warm day! Gravity came in at about 1.061 (I think). It was supposed to be a little higher, but oh well. Close enough. Everything went smooth, including drying the grain which will next move on to become chicken feed. Fermenting was fast, it's probably almost ready for secondary. I'll check it tonight or tomorrow.
Update 8/21/11: Racked to secondary and added 1oz of Centennial and 1oz of Simcoe. Gravity was at 1.012, making this about 6.1% ABV. While it was supposed to be a little higher, I prefer most of the brews I make to come in between 5% and 6%.
