EDIT: Final Cut Recipe
So I'm making a chocolate mint stout for Christmas gifts and want ya'lls opinion. Yup, ya'll. I'm from the south. Anyways, I had some Southern Tier Creme Brulee Stout and was amazed at how much it tasted like Creme Brulee, so I thought I would make a beer that tasted like a Thin Mint Girl Scout cookie. I've never made a sweet stout before but after searching for a few days I decided on this.
Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.
