a.k.a. Better Than John's Porter

18 oz. chocolate rye malt (that's how much was actually in my 1 lb. bag)
16 oz. crisp brown malt
8 oz. chocolate malt
8 oz. Weyermann smoked malt
4 oz. Black patent
4 oz. Briess special roast
4 oz. Simpsons dark crystal

Extract: 4 lbs. Muntons Dark DME

Boil:
60 minutes
1/2 oz. Perle
1/2 oz. Fuggle
30 minutes
1/4 oz. Fuggle
10 minutes
1/4 oz. Fuggle
1/2 tsp. Irish moss
1 min.
1 oz. Kent Goldings

slight boil over about 20 min. into the boil

Like a college student pouring the whole fucking spice rack into a stir-fry, I kind of made up this recipe on the spot, using amounts that seemed reasonable even though I'd never used most of these malts before. We'll see how it turns out.

brewing, beer
