I am looking for a mouthfull type beer. Preferably barley based, I am unsure about my hops. I wanted to see what you guys think. I did this with my iphone app called "brew pal". It's an awesome software and I can see it saving my ass when I am at my LHBS and can't decide on something.
Anyway what do you think of it... Is this a stout or a porter?
