Milk Stout for Light Beer

[whitesheperd]

Hello guys, I personally like lighter beers, I have actually found a few dark beers such as Belgium 1554 dark lager I love.. ANYWAYS sorry got off subject.. I have milk stout I am currently brewing right now, and in about a week or less I will be bottle conditioning, naturally carbing. And I will really love to trade with someone when that time does come for my milk stout for someone's light beer.. Such as like a cream ale, American light.. Stuff with IBU in the teens.. This milk stout has the IBU of the 30s.. I got the extract kit from my local brew store, I was looking at all the kits and it was between the obktoberfest, American light, and the milk stout (this) and I decided to try this. The reason I would like to try a light home brew beer is because I want to brew a light beer next.. If you would like to trade a beer (I WOULD REALLY PREFER A LIGHT BEER TO TRY) in a couple weeks please post or pm me!

Yeah, I've heard that's a good one. What's the IBU on it,?

Low 20s but no hops added until the last 30 minutes of boil so very little bitterness

Just brewed a fresh batch last weekend

Alright then we should be around the same time era although mine was done yesterday at day 6.. I tried it.. Wow!! An amazing beer, and it is flat since I haven't carbonated it yet. But I did last night and added 4.5 oz of prime sugar in the Carboy and bottled(; so I had to take another sip today.. The carbonation is actually going pretty quick! Still a ways to go but good enough where I already finished one beer DEFIANTLY a 5 star beer from me

You do realize that your carbonation will be off transferring after priming and you risk oxidation by re bottling

Yeah.. It's got fossil alcohol I guess. It was amazing now it's like wtf.. Taste went away/: I'm sorry man.. I was looking forward to swapping.. It was my first batch so I'm pretty sure I know what I did wrong.. The first day of fermentation I didn't have a swamp cooler and got to warm.. But I really do recommend this beer.. Hey if u don't like it then store it or give it to friends
