Have a homebrew.<BR/><BR/>Especially with extract, you're always going to have something drinkable in the end (unless things go REALLY bad). I like the concept of the Irie Stout. We did an old oak stout this year and I don't want to go back down that path. I like your logic with adding something light to contrast the roast/malt flavor. Maybe try and strike hit the note of one of those fancy chocolates in the box or something (you know, the ones with the fruit filling). Anyway, I like the idea and can't wait to hear how it goes.<BR/><BR/>Cheers!Travishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293454329758079937noreply@blogger.com
