Richard's The Third

Liver, we have a problem!

Next batch is on the go; got the idea from a 'friend' who said two cans of stout will make a great smooth drink. So:

2 x Munton's stout
100g sugar
1 x licorice stick

Let it cool from 24oC to 21oC overnight (in the beer box) and then added 4 litres more water and the 2 yeast packs. The problem is the reading on day 1 is:

1090

(The hydrometer registers this alongside dessert wine!!!)

We shall see where we end up :)



Right, we have a winner!

Great beer, just gets better and better. Smooth, quite silky, overtones of licorice. Delicious. Will be making this one again :)

    Day 11: 1012 @ 16oC

    Tasted like coffee the other day, but that has turned to a more liquorice flavour. Very smooth too.

    "Richard Goes Forth" would be a good title for the next installment
