Notes

Use the booze for bottling. 750 ml disoranno. 1 oz corn sugar. This is equivalent to about 3.8 oz corn sugar because the Disoranno has 3 grams of sugar per oz. So a 750 ml bottle has just under 3 oz of fermentable sugar.

I boiled the corn sugar in some water and then Dumped that in the bottling bucket. Then just dumped the disoranno in because its already sterile.

The disoranno brings the abv up to about 5.6%

Had a cask aged almond stout at Helms Brewery in San Diego. Thats where I got the idea

Update: its a little over carbed. Omit the 1 oz corn sugar
