Notes

Recipe found on the internet, I made smaller modifications.

The was extremely similar in odor to Delirium Tremens. The body was heavier, and the flavor was a slight bit more earthy. Excellent and enjoyable.

Surprisingly, the earthy spiciness actually made it a bit warming, and it would make a fine winter beer.
