Third barrel brew with the Rock Hoppers, and I'm honored that they chose my recipe for it. Will be blended with other brews of using the same recipe and aged in an oak barrel for 8 months. The original recipe called for Munich, using Dark Munich instead. Substituting Pale Chocolate instead of Chocolate malt as well. |
