Notes

Brewed on New Years' Day 2022.
A little bit thinner mouth feel, not as creamy as I was going for.

I will be brewing this again on New Years' Day 2023. I have changed a few things... added 1 pound of flaked oats and boosted the coffee malt from .75 lbs to 1 lb. also switched the whisky from Glenleit to Jaimasons cask mates(stout) and added 2 vanilla beans. The coffee and vanilla will soak in the whisky for 2 weeks and it will all go into the secondary.

Update 2023: Pending
This beer took 3rd place in BOS in the Chico Homebrew competition. I feel like I can still do better. I think it was still a little lite on the body, could have been sweeter, and had more vanilla. I am going to up the lactose and the vanilla beans.

Update 2024: Pending
