Sheep Fornicator
Strong Scotch Ale • Extract • 18.93 L
I have brewed this one before, my actual name for it is Sheep F**ker. It has gotten praises from friends of mine that like dark brews. I did change ingredients a bit this time I used molasses insted of using dark malt extract and I used Wyeast Scottish ale yeast and not Nottighams dry ale yeast.

This batch turned out better than the first version that I made. Even though it is a strong brew there isn't any off alcahol notes. At this point in it's life it has great head retention. I just hope that I can let some of it sit and age.
