I was trying to think of something to do for a gift to celebrate my 1 year anniversary with my GF. What else is better than BREWING A BEER!
I let her pick the type of beer she wanted to do and she decided on a Chocolate Peanut Butter Stout. I took a couple different recipes with different methods for achieving the Chocolate PB and meshed them together to come up with my own. If anyone would like to see what I used, I'll post it.
We bottled it this week after it sat a week in primary and 2 weeks in secondary on chocolate. Initial thoughts after tasting it were very good: it has a great chocolate aroma, a nice silky stout mouthfeel to it and you get a nice PB cookie on the back end. We will wait to see how it gets after carbing up.
I hate seeing when fellow HBT'ers get scolded by their significant others for our great hobby. I thought I would share my feel-good story and I'm one lucky guy to know my GF not only could care less about all the money I blow on homebrewing, but will join in on the fun too.
Cheers everybody!
