Hello all,
I am in the process of working on a milk stout/or other type beer to help with milk production for breastfeeding wife. I haven't made anything in about a year an a half so this will be my first dive back in. I was looking at Duck Rabbit, Left Hand, and southern tier for inspiration. since she has not drank in 9 months and there is a baby involved i want to stay in 6 and under ABV.
This is where I am at. please let me know if any one has and feedback or suggestions. Thank yo in advance .
Grain Bill: 60 min mash - 60 min boil
7lb Maris Otter
1lb Roasted Barley
1lb Lactose
.75lb Chocolate
.75lb Crystal 60
.5 Flacked Oats
.5 Flacked Barley
.5 Munich Malt (not 100% on this addition)
Hops:
1 oz Fuggles or Willamette at 60 (Willamette will be fresh if I harvest enough)
1 oz east kent golding at 15
Note: Will also have a lot of cascade at harvest but don't think that will work great in this type of beer.
Yeast:
irish ale or cali ale (most likely white labs)
Secondary:
Maybe a 1/2 or whole vanilla bean
