Will do
...though it is directly taken from Clone Brews ...I will be brewing this soon so might do it as a brew day. I didn't like the bottled version as much as my own (I tasted my own first)...though I could tell they were the same beer....and it's a monster.I'm very fussy about stouts, and I don't like roasted flavours at all. I was expecting it to be a long hard trawl to find a home brew stout that I'd like :?
I could quite happily drink this stout for the rest of my days
I know what you mean about roasties, remember that brewday I came up for, the Blue Cheese in my Porter - I had a bottle of Wychwood Black Wych tonight and it may as well have said Brewed in Stilton :shock: then followed it with the SS Oatmeal and it was such a difference I'll be keen to brew the SS to see if I can get a cheese free stout

Wez did you really taste blue in the black wych?
BTW if you have a Sainsbury's near by try the Meantime London Porter....no seriously...try it.....I mean it.
It aint cheap but IMO it's absolutely fantastic. I rarely try a brew that I wish to drink to the end of my days, but this is one of them. I can believe this is based on a old recipe as I've never tasted anything like it...it's quite special
Don't try it and miss out

No work tomorrow so may as well pull a few pints of Swift Bitter :drink:
Go for it Wez, can't have any tonight, i'm on at 5 am in the morning. Just put the bins out and this always spoils my weekend, reminds me of work the next day.
Still 2 years to go and f*** the lot of them.

JB I said that 46 years ago. It worked :!:
i've had two pints of my 5.7% rauchbier on an empty stomach and i'm absolutely smashed! :drunk:
this stuff turned out lovely. I remember a rauchbier I had at a fest and it was way too smokey.
this one is just enough smokeyness to be noticeable, but not overpowering. the hallertauer compliment it perfectly
I bottled 10 bottles from what was left in the fermener when racking. if anyone wants me to include it with my group brew when we post them, let me know that's also stands for my wasp stinger too but that will be bottled form the tap though as I didnt have any leftovers from racking

I found my Rauchbier a bit to nice, i drank it pretty fast
I bought 2.5kg of Rauchmaltz off Bugno i liked it so much, i'm gonna make a stout and include it in the grains, do you think 1.5kg will come through in a stout Stew?

that's a bloody good idea mate!
I might try that in the next installment of Genius as that uses the germen NB hops
I reckon 1.5kg will compliment any roasted malt you chuck in, that's for sure :) but I dont think you want to overpower the roasted otherwise it won't be a stout! hehe
i'm gunna do another rauch, this time using 2kg to see how if comes out. I can't remember who posted it, but someone has a recipe on here with more than 50% rauch IIRC
go for it! it's good stuff innit?

It is great stuff and the whole reason i'm only upping the rauchmaltz is just to be strong enough to be noticed with the roasted malts, i don't think it's possible to overpower roasted malts

I didn't plan that far but i have some hallertauer in the fridge and i've never tried them before so i may give them a go :hmm: :thumb:
