Notes

Added 1lbs of dried malt extract in boil to adjust gravity. Also added 1oz Roasted, 2oz carafa III, and blackprinz at 15 minutes end of mash to adjust color.
Beer came out perfect beautiful aroma roasty, with hints of chocolate notes complex. Black beauty with tan head tight bubbles. Flavor is smooth with complex roasted notes (not burnt).
Sweetness starts and finishes the beer not cloying.
