Oatmeal Stout

The seasons are changing and so is my beer tastes.  Now that fall is here it's time to start kicking in some darker beers to tide the winter over.  Some will be stouts and porters, others will be Black IPA's, and there's always got to be some super hop bomb IPA's.  So to kick it off, here's an oatmeal stout that I have brewed before.  It's similar to a Shakespeare Oatmeal Stout from Rogue.

Recipe:
10 gallons

Fermentables:
23 lb GW 2-Row
1.18 lb Bairds Chocolate
1.18 lb Crystal 120L
8.73 oz Roasted Barley
1.55 lb Flaked Oats

Aniticpated OG: 1.074
Actual OG: 1.070
Anticipated FG: 1.019
Actual FG: 1.019
ABV%: 7.3%

Hops:
1.25oz Cascade for 75m
1.25oz Cascade for 60m
1.25oz Cascade for 30m
1.25oz Cascade for 1m

41 IBU

Yeasts:
5 gallons with White Labs WLP004-Irish Ale
5 gallons with Wyeast Pacman slurry

Notes:
Brewed last Sunday (9/16/12).  Smooth brewing.  Used a canopy to keep the leaves from falling into the boil.  Fermenting is coming along slow.
Update 10/7/12: Kegged the Irish Ale half.  Really tasty.  FG was 1.019.  It might have dropped a little lower, but I was in a rush to get it going for a party.  I'll keg the other half next week for the next party it's going to.
