WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

The third addition to our Intergalactic line of beers, The Big Dipper steps it up a notch. The mighty ladle in the sky is pouring some heavy beer down our throats with a heavy hitting 7% ABV. Brewed with plenty of roasted and chocolate malts, this stout provides an excellent mouth feel with a delicious roasted flavor.
