I'm brewing a Belgian Dark Strong Ale With Abbey Ale yeast as a winter warmer/Christmas ale and I'd like to add some Allspice to it to bring out the holiday flavors. At the same time I don't want to ruin $90 of ingredients by over spicing the beer.
I brew 12 gallons at a time and I'm curious if there's a general rule of thumb on how to get a subtle yet noticeable taste from the spices without making it cloying.
I'm thinking of 1/2 tsp to 1 full tsp??
