Notes
This beer turned out good, and the flavor is there, but the yeast I used was a reculture from Rogue Ale's brews. I would reccommend this recipe, but use a different yeast. I tied for 1st place at my local homebrew club's monthly meeting with this one.

I made this beer over Christmas and holy cow is it good! Kind of reminiscient of Rouges Hazelnut Brown (obviously w/o the hazlenut). Deliscious roasty creamy flavor, ultimately I feel it ended up a cross between a porter and a brown. Good recipe, I highly recommend it!
