Motor Oil Stout Ale
Oatmeal Stout • Extract • 5 gal
As you can see, I like my oatmeal stout smooth and mild. Therefore, I reduced the hop content and do a partial boil. I start with a dark liquid base as well-- the darker the better in my book. I used flaked oats and it gave just the right amount of flavor and smoothness. Alcohol is at the high end, but not too high as to distract from my desire to drink three in a sitting. 1 week in primary, 10 days in Secondary at 69 degrees. Kegged, and force Carbonated. Magnificent! After 6 weeks in the keg, it really got smooth and mild. My friends think I'm drinking swamp water but they like "beer flavored water." This is a keeper and I'll will be making this again.

Great first brew

We brewed this ale and after two weeks, the first taste was incredible. If you like a heavy, meal like beverage, this one's for you. Light on hops but big on flavor. We had a few people over and it was a big hit. We are going to brew this again and try adding raspberry natural extract. I'll let you know how it turns out.
