Hey Guys it has been too long! I have been super busy and haven't been able to brew but I finally got back into the mash. This recipe was designed by my two friends who I have been teaching to brew and most ingredients were picked because that's what we had available but I have high hopes.
The aim of beer was a dark heavy body with strong coffee and roast chocolate notes. We wanted some spicy/pine notes from the hops.
