Long Count Stout

Long Count Stout

Oatmeal Stout • Partial Mash • 4.5 gal

Ubik

This beer came about from an idea inspired by some of the original Mexican chocolate concoctions, and the creations of Vosges haute chocolate. Vodka tinctures of cocoa nibs, cinnamon and cayenne pepper will be added to taste at bottling time. I will also bottle some of this beer without the flavor additives to see how just the oatmeal stout base itself turns out.

Preliminary tasting indicates that this will be a delicious, malty stout with enough body to back up the spices. However, I added *slightly* more cayenne tincture than desired in the secondary, so the beer has a little bit more heat than I anticipated. It's still delicious and drinkable, though, so I consider it a success. Just be EXTREMELY careful with the cinnamon and cayenne tinctures, as a few drops can make a substantial difference in flavor! The volume yield was lower than I anticipated, possibly due to a pretty heavy sparge. This is my first partial mash brewing, so future brews should refine my process a bit.
