I taste-tested a small 12oz-er last night (7 days in bottle)...still has alot of twang to it, and the coconut is VERY pronounced. The rum is just barely noticeable (which I like). Not that great last night, but hopefully it'll mellow out with time.

Here's a slightly similar recipe that I've just bottled... https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f68/pirate-ale-56705/ At bottling it still tasted a little sour to me...I used the prescribed amount of confectioners coconut so hopefully it'll balance out. My only advice is maybe watch how many days you...

nice work! recipe looks simple & tasty. any chance we can get a shot of the beer in a pint glass? Seeing a thick brown head on a dark beer like this basically equates to beer porn for me. again - nice work. especially for your first brew.

sounds interesting, I love my maple brown ale...how'd this turn out?

I try to do a batch every couple weeks, depends mostly on carboy space & how much bottles I have ready to go (have yet to upgrade to kegs).

Did a maple nut brown recipe from the local brew store & put 2 quarts of maple syrup in the wort as soon as I turned the heat off. aged 2 weeks in a primary, 3.5 weeks in a secondary and I just bottled tonight. so sweet! almost too sweet... anyone have experience with using maple syrup...

I dont think so, I did mine in a 6gal carboy and its been bubbling away pretty politely.

Just did my first batch with the 3068 yeast, 5 gals of apple juice, & 2lbs of dextrose. I've seen some varied responses in how long until ready...seems the consensus is about 3 months with the 3068?
