Notes

This one has been very well liked by all my friends. I am working on modifying it to make it more - Milky, Chocolately and Stout-y.

Funny story about this... A buddy of mine loved this. Gave some to his father in law. HE loved it. So, my friend bought the ingredients and we brewed another batch. He gave it to his Father in Law for Christmas 2015. Father in Law decided he wanted to share some with business associates. In JAPAN. So, he carefully packed it over there. Went through an ordeal at customs and eventually got to share it with some Japanese business associates. Because of this event my brewery's slogan is:

"The sun (almost) never sets on the Bumbling Amateur Brewing Empire"
