Notes

All my friends and family loved this one. Definately one to try.The IBU seem high, but magnum is very smooth and balances perfectly. Bottle condition for at least a month. My FG came out to 1.019.

Oats, milk sugar, and a hint of coffee makes one good breakfast of champions.

Age this for a few months and it gets even better.

Made it again.. Same recipe, same awesome beer. Going to submit to a local homebrew contest..

Update; This baby got me the first place trophy! 1st out of 14 entries in a local homebrew contest. Stuff is fantastic
