Okay, so I make coffee wine. Usually, they come out pretty tasty.
I made a "christmas" coffee wine, using a Christmas blend coffee,
some honey and molasses. It did not come out all that great. I'll
drink it just because I don't want to waste it...it is not THAT bad.
Anyhow, I'm sitting here drinking a bit of it, and it just occurred to me...
this almost tastes like a dark porter. I think with a slight adjustment
on the sugars, add in some hops, and maybe brew it with just a little
adjunct grains...a chocolate or Crystal 60 or something sweet like
that...this would taste very much like a porter, except with a higher
ABV (should be around 9% or 10%), and much easier to make.
I'll keep you posted as I get to work on this...might be a while, so
if you're interested, comment here or bookmark or whatever, so you
can be notified when I post again.
Cheers
