A Co-worker of mine received a beer of the month club from his kids for Christmas. This particular club features different Belgian beers. Lucky for me, he doesn't like them...so I've joined the beer of the month club for free. Here are the first 2:

Actually, it's not Mr. Maltys fault, it's mine. Anyway, I brewed my first Barleywine yesterday, first really High OG beer actually. OG was 1.112. So I entered the numbers into MrMarlty to see how much S-05 I should use. Filled in the Gravity, and the volume (5 Gallon batch). MrMalty recommended...
