Rugged enough to take on the Mountain Man today. Brewing up my second batch of the Mountain Man Barleywine. It follows the general recipe of last years version with a few modifications, including some more base malt to get a little more alcohol, less chocolate and some crystal malt. While I will be able to taste this one and the one I made in the fall side by side, they should be pretty different because of the age on the old one and the changes to this one. I also plan to let this one age longer in the fermenting vessels, I of course think it is going to be great, but going to have to wait a while to find out.
Mountain Man Barleywine
Malts: American 2-Row, Aromatic, Biscuit, Chocolate, Crystal
Hops: Chinook, Centennial
ABV: Probably in the 9-10% range
Playlist: Soaking up the new Ryan Bingham album
Moved some beer around today, excited for the Brown Ale I made last week, but I am always excited about what is next instead of what is on tap now.
