Let me start off by saying that I know this doesn't really fit into any "Style", but who cares, right? I guess it kind of a Stout/Port/Wheat hybrid. Here goes:

Batch Size: 5 Gallons
Est. OG: 1.089
Est. FG: 1.020
IBU: 22

10# - 2-row Pale
5# - Carawheat
1# - Special B
1# - Chocolate Malt
.5# - Roated Barley

1oz. Centinial (10% AA) @ 60 Min

Wyeast 1728 Scottish Ale Yeat (2L Starter)

Mash @ 154º for 60 Min

Primary: 4 weeks @ 60º
Secondary 2 weeks @ 60º

I plan on adding 3 pounds of blueberries that I picked and froze from this past summer to the secondary.

Thoughts/Comments.

Cheers :mug:
 
I would take out the carawheat. It will add too high of a proportion of unfermentables. I would also cut out at least half of each of your dark malts and sub in 1/2 to 3/4 lb of a darker crystal. If you want wheat in there just use regular wheat malt.
