Im a newbie brewer and while browsing and reading about various adjuncts and grains I came up with this.
-A bit of molasses for a hint of rum flavor.
-Some oak chips for a casked flavor.
-Golden naked oats for their sweet berry nut flavor.
-Perhaps a bit of crystal malt for a reddish hue and body/foamy head.
What I need from here are suggestions on the right measure to obtain these qualities without one overpowering the other and suggestions for hops. Any experience with these items greatly appreciated.
Also, what to name it?? Old oak barrel beer.. Rum cask ale.. Hmm..
