Notes

This recipe is asked for by all of my craft beer drinking friends. The buckwheat honey adds an just a small earthy, slightly sharp bite in the beginning that ends smooooth and creamy.
last year I doubled the buckwheat honey from 1 to 2 lb. and the increased alcohol (1%) and flavor balanced out exceptionally well. I've changed the malts and upping the honey for this year's batch to gauge the impact. I hope it works out.

4 of 5

9% ABV, but you'd never notice it. It's smooth and creamy, just like you'd expect. Maybe a touch more hops to balance the malty sweetness.
