So I tried the Samuel Adams Hazel Brown last week and was very pleased with the flavor profile. I loved the hazelnut flavors that came from this brew. I hadn’t come up with a recipe lately and kinda feel like I have been slacking on that front. Being back in school and the rest of life has kept me fairly busy. Anyways, I was searching around and ended up thinking of trying to do a hazelnut coffee porter. I researched how to do the coffee and apparently there really isn’t a “right” way of doing it. Everyone has their own way and got their own results. So here is the recipe I am thinking of going with.
3lbs - Dark Malt Dry Extract
3lbs - Wheat Malt Dry Extract
1lb - Briess Caramel 60L
