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

10/18/20: I don't have any allspice this round, so just upping all 4 other ingredients, but I left it in the recipe so if you ever brew this again you'll have it there.
A note for next time, please try to bring the ABV of this back down, it's fine for this round, but... yeah
