Bored today so I'm toying with the idea of brewing up something tomorrow. I have extra honey laying around from all the mead making so I figured I'd incorporate it into a beer. Haven't done a dark beer in a long time so I think it's time again.
7lb 2 row - 51.9%
2lb Flaked Oats - 14.8%
1lb Chocolate Malt - 7.4%
1lb Victory Malt - 7.4%
.5lb Honey Malt - 3.7%
.5lb Roasted Barley - 3.7%
1.5lb Honey - 11.1%
Total grain/fermentable bill 13.5lbs
Mash at 152 degrees for an hour, 90 minute boil
2.5oz Kent Golding hops at 60 minutes.
US-05 yeast
Should be around 1.064 OG, 35 IBU, 36.3 SRM, 1.016 FG at 6.3% ABV. I'm not shooting for anything in particular OG wise so whatever it comes out to is good.
Any thoughts? I've never used victory malt in any of my recipes before but I heard it works well in porters and stouts.
