Beer Style: Dry Stout
(13A)
Recipe Type: extract
Yield: 5 US gallons
Bold with dark coffee, chocolate, nut and caramel flavors. Lots of flowery scents from flavorful Zeus and Citra hops. Like a good India Pale Ale but "stouted". A drier English style stout that starts with a hoppy bite but darkens on the tongue to flavors of roasted chocolate and nut and finishes smooth and dry. A nice mid to late winter ale!
