This will be a first run for me using smoked malt. The special B will hopefully add enough of a raisin flavor..oatmeal for creamy/mouthy feel. Not too hoppy. Truly an oatmeal stout with the "Extra" ABV. Note the full bodied mash profile. Hope it turns out.
Dark with a great head that followed the bear to the end malty/hint of hops yum...this beer was awesome...especially if you like smokey beers. had a creamy texture I would brew this again.. I loved this beer. I would back off on the amount of smoke malt by a quarter or even a half. Half might loose too much of the smokiness. I will brew this again but decrease the amount of smoke malt by 1/4
