Beer Style: Sweet Stout  (13B)
Recipe Type: extract
Yield: 5 US gallons

Sweet Stout

Description:

Wyeast #1028 does not seem to have high attenuation, causing high final gravity. After 1 month in bottles, the beer has low carbonation levels. I like it this way! The beer feels thick and sweet. If you want a good sweet stout, like Mackeson, this recipe with Wyeast #1028 is a good way to go. This stuff is black! When you pour a bottle, it sucks all the light out of the room...you have to drink it in the dark. Amazingly, there isn't much hops aroma and taste, but with so many other flavors and aromas, you don't miss it.

Ingredients:

  • 3.3 pounds, Edme SFX dark malt extract
  • 3.3 pounds, John Bull dark malt extract
  • 2 pounds, amber dry malt extract
  • 1 pound, crystal malt
  • 1 pound, roasted barley
  • 1 pound, chocolate malt
  • 3/4 pound, black patent malt
  • 1/2 stick, brewers licorice
  • 2 ounces, Brewers Gold hops
  • 2 ounces, Fuggles hops
  • 1/2 pound, French roast coffee beans
  • Wyeast #1028: British ale
