This beer was originally to be a touch over 13% abv. I'm using up grains from last year and the 500 grams of 04 yeast has proven to be too much for me. I can't use it fast enough and has aged in my fridge.
Besides that, this stout turned out chocolatey, a hint of coffee, thick, sweet and the longer it sat in the final carboy(it was racked four times), the alcohol smell/flavor has now dissipated.
