10lbs Dark dry malt extract
1Lbs Cane sugar
1/3 Lbs Molasses
12oz Crystal Malt
10oz Chocolate Malt
3oz Roasted Barley
3oz Black Patent
2.5 oz Target Hops (bittering)
1oz Target Hops (flavor)
1/2oz Target Hops (aroma)
Bring 2 gallons of water and grains to 155 degrees and steep for 30 minutes. Bring this to a boil. Remove from heat and add all malt extract, cane sugar, and molasses. Allow wart to boil for 45 min. Add your flavoring hops and boil an additional 10 min. Add aroma hops and boil and additional 5 minutes.
This beer is right around 10.3% abv. It's best aged as long as you can wait. I believe my best tasting batch yet of this brew I aged for about 4 months. I'm sure you could easily age this beer a year or longer. I just couldn't wait that long!
Enjoy!
