Notes

I used Quaker Quick Oats for the mash.
It is VERY important that you mash-in in the order the grains are listed starting from rolled oats then ending with carastan. Dough balls are very prone when mashing this recipe.

Placed in a 20L Hungarian Oak Barrel for entirety of secondary.

This beer is very big and has a strong licorice and rum flavour. I highly recommend letting this age for at least 6 months in a used rum barrel.

This beer won 3rd place at Cowtown YeastWranglers Homebrewing competition
