It's pretty simple actually but turned out nice.

1 gallon batch

1lb 12oz 2 row
4oz victory
2oz American chocolate
2oz blackprinz
2oz crystal 60
1/8 tsp allspice

Mash @153 for 60 mins
8g fuggles @ 60 min
6g fuggles @ 15 min
(should be around 25 IBU)
US-05 (I've used s04 too and it works good also)
1.5oz whiskey soaked cacao nibs (use more if you want a big chocolate flavor)

Has a decent amount of roast with a nice sweet, chocolatey body to back it up and the allspice adds a little something to it. I'm working on a coconut vanilla version of it.
 
Always curious, as I've read about the Pico...I use a propane setup for extract and Grainfather for winter indoor. How do you like (love) your Pico?

I have the small one, not the Zymatic. Its pretty awesome. In less than 2 weeks the beer is ready and very well made too.
 
Old English Ale ; recipe from "Brewing Better Beer" by Gordon Strong. Brewed back in 2012 and barrel aged in a Mississippi Bourbon barrel for 6 months. I still have some left and it is very tasty.

Robust Cream Ale from "Modern Homebrew Recipes" by Gordon Strong. The photo with two tall glasses was taken a month after kegging in October, and a recent photo of the same beer with the mini Christmas tree in the background.

Definition of beer porn right here. Gotta go buy a book...
 
Bow - that looks really nice, just curious, what yeast did you use? Does it taste as good as it looks? Last one, what AA was the goldings you used?

thanks! I usually use 05 slurry, but sometime I make a batch of "Notty Cathy" and use Nottingham... both fermented at about 67-68.
It must taste good... my wife drinks way too much of it. :rockin:
I have a few pounds of US Goldings (5.2) that I use, but I don't think it makes much difference since it's just for bittering.
