Taste Notes

This brew is in the very low range of Porter style gravities. Body is not heavy as you would expect from looking, a nice dark clear colour, and body. Chocolatey, smokey, coffe type dry -earth flavours and aroma from generous use of black malt. Nicely underhopped as per style, Noble German hops remain in the background keeping malt at the forefront.

Notes

At S.G. 1.020- aprox 3 weeks, Take 11.3 liters and keg. I filled a 750 ml swingtop fancy bottle and added Jack Daniels barrel chips ( a few) . Added dark belgian candi sugar (homemade), coffee,cocoa and 4 oz JD barrel chips to the other half batch. Let ferment until finished, bottle or keg. Enjoy both versions, original; and flavoured with extra alcohol. I indicated 2 lbs candi sugar to get the right amount of alcohol and sg numbers of dosing half a batch with 1 Lb. Remove this ingredient from list when first brewing to get original figures, then add afterwards when time to add sugar.
