I've used special B in a few previous Beers, but Never used Special roast. Being interested in trying a new brew using Special Roast I made Up a recipe.
I went to my LHBS with two buckets for two batches of beer. one beer had 12oz Special B one had .25 Oz Special roast.
Well Long story short, the Two got mixed Up ...I now Have 12oz Special roast mixed and crushed with my Dubbel Abbey recipe, when it was supposed to be Special B.....
what can I expect, is this way to much Special roast for a 5.5 gal Batch, I only hope that it is still (partially) true to style...

used Special Roast instead of special B
thx for any input, I'm a Pretty confident brewer, I know In the end that I'm still going to have beer, and that that this is no end of the world situation, but being that I havnt experimented with this malt yet, I'm wondering what to expect and If I can even call this a Belgian Dubbel.
