Brutus Raisin Hell
Fruit Beer • All Grain • 5.39 gal
Finished drier than expected. Raisins added an undescribable flavor to the beer. Doesn't taste exactly like raisins, but something's different. Overall, pretty good. It was a big hit with my friends. Will probably add raisins to secondary next time.
