Hey, All:
I'm trying to put together a recipe for a big American style stout such as a Yetti, Bell's, or Founders but I'm having a hard time figuring out what ingredients to use.
From what I gather, typical recipes use 2-row, chocolate, roasted barley, and black patent for the malts.
The problem is that I don't have easy access to a lot of these ingredients here in Vienna. I can probably order the specialty malts, but I'd rather not spend a lot on having the base malts shipped.
Given that these are my options for base malts in Vienna, what would you guys use to start your recipe?

I'd like the beer to be something with a lot of body and kind of sweet.
Thanks
