BAB?
Sounds like a winner......but 500 cals/pint!? I guess at 9% ABV, you'd only have 1 or 2. This looks like a keeper...something you could age over a few years.

Big A$$ Beer!

Yeah it is a true lager (to the sense of the word). There are 25 or so people brewing the same recipe tomorrow so I should learn some cool stuff and get to network a bit.

Can't wait. Got my ingredients last night and I am packing tonight for an early rise and brew day tomorrow.

Wish me luck!!
