Ok so brewed a partial mash oatmeal porter kit I got for the LHBS. I had a boil over right after I put the 60 minute hops in. It then bubbled over during primary fermentation ( I know just a mess of a brew day ). After 10 days I moved it to secondary for 20 days then I hooked it up to co2 and chilled for a week so after a total of five weeks I sampled it and it has an off smell to it. Sort of sour smell and a sweet after taste. I assume from the boil over losing my bittering hops.
So my question is ... I want to put a starbucks via in it to experiment. For those of you that don't know a via is an instant coffee pack that dissolve even in cold liquid. I think the coffee flavor would work with the oatmeal and maybe ad some bitterness.
Any thoughts?
