So, my wife has thrown down the gauntlet. She has set me to the task of producing a salted chocolate caramel beer.
By basic plan is this. Produce a sweet stout, somehow make it salty, and adjunct it with caramel and chocolate.
The sweet stout and adjunct part will be pretty strait forward, but the salty part has thrown me for a loop. I know that the "oyster stout" style tends to have a briny salty tone. However, I have not yet tried a beer from this genre, and am looking for alternative methods for adding a salty tone to a beer.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Any suggestions on how to add a salty quality to a beer in a controlled way?
