American Stout 11/30/2016 . It has Chocolate, Midnight Wheat and Belgian Special X to darken it. I brewed it at night since the weather was still nice in Chicago. Its dark. Beginning to seriously drink this after Jan 10 2017 from keg - its creamy and smooth and one of the best beers I've made. I'm proud to serve this one !!

Notes:

Keg's probably more than 1/2 empty now.... a great beer to finish off a night!! This is so creamy and fun to drink. The special B(x) REALLY came out (Pro Brewers notice it after 1st sip)

Now this is getting really nice. Creamy, cascading head and great balance. A nice beer to drink at the end of the night....or else Ill drink about 5 in a row!!
