[quote=“dsidab81”]I was expecting a bit more, but oh well…free is free. Been wanting to do a black ipa / CDA whatever you wanna call it. 2oz black malt should be sufficient for color without too much astringency.
Speaking of dark beers, Gregscu, your black and mild was excellent. Would be the perfect 2.5 gallon keg beer for sitting around a campfire.
Being that you were kind enough to include recipes, that’ll be on the docket soon![/quote]
That version of the Black & Mild used WY1581PC Belgian Stout, which I think is no longer available. I do have some frozen that I could give you if you really want to use the Belgian yeast. Otherwise, I typically make this beer using Nottingham and it comes out fantastic, in fact I prefer the Notty version over the WY1581 version. I have also used S-04 in this recipe, but again, I prefer Notty.
