Hey,
I am going to participate in Tough Mudder next summer and was thinking, "Holy damn this is going to be tough. Sure going to need a damn fine, damn strong, damn damned beer after it".
Here is what I have come up with so far.
Batch Size: 4.00 gal
Boil Size: 6.00 gal
Estimated OG: 1.083 (can go as high as 1.090)
Estimated FG: 1.018 (8.5% ABV)
Estimated Color: 47.2 SRM
Estimated IBU: 90 IBU
10 lbs 2-Row
1 lbs Roasted Barely
0.5 lbs Chocolate Malt
0.5 lbs Special B Malt
0.5 lbs Molasses
0.25 lbs Cocoa Powder
1.5 oz Chinook @ 60
0.5 oz Chinook @ 45
Pacman Yeast
Mash - 153-155F, Single Infusion (going to medium-full body)
This is the base recipe so far, so critique away.
I am also considering adding some form of pepper to the beer, such as jalapeno or even habanero. Thoughts?
I am open to suggestions on this recipe for any other ingredients that may make this beer an epic reward after Tough Mudder.
