Description:

The whole thing turned out pretty good - the beer itself seems to be about the best we've done so far. It has a dark, bitter, funky flavor from the coffee and the black patent malt. Color is very black almost chunky, and has good thick head - kinda like Guiness in color and consistancy.

Ingredients:

• 3.3# M&F Amber Malt extract
• 3.3# John Bull Dark Malt Extract
• 1# Black Patent Malt
• 1/4# Crystal Malt
• 1.5 oz Northern Brewers Hop Pellets - main boil
• 1 oz Tettnanger Hop Pellets - finish
• 1/2# Espresso - coarsely ground
• ale yeast
