Notes

efficiency was set @ 70%, ended up being 75%, maybe i boiled too much and got more concentrated wort or i just got good extraction. either way i wasn't intending this to be a 5.8% beer., I was shooting for 5.4%
Target OG 1.052
OG ended up 1.056

3 of 5

Too toasty.
Lower the ABV target to 4.8%
Increase IBU to 45
Less chocolate malt, maybe try 1/2 pound.
