Notes

Second or third attempt to adapt this recipe for my local fermentables/hop availability. All brews of this have been fantastic. All credit to Nixonbrew.




All my friends and family loved this one. Definately one to try.The IBU seem high, but magnum is very smooth and balances perfectly. Bottle condition for at least a month. My FG came out to 1.019.

Oats, milk sugar, and a hint of coffee makes one good breakfast of champions.

Age this for a few months and it gets even better.

Made it again.. Same recipe, same awesome beer. Going to submit to a local homebrew contest..

Update; This baby got me the first place trophy! 1st out of 14 entries in a local homebrew contest. Stuff is fantastic
