I got this recipe from a friend soon after I started my all grain ventures (thanks Frank!). It quickly became one of my favorites. I have substituted a few ingredients on this batch and it is also the first 10 gallon batch I have attempted. I will keep half of it for my own pleasure and the other half I will give to Andrew when he returns from deployment. Andy is not big on very dark beer, so I will substitute this for the OldGoat Darkness (see notes on my Darkness recipe).

My first attempt at this won me best in category and 3rd place overall at the Whidbey Island Pig Roast and Homebrew Competition 12 August 2012. Hopefully this batch turns out just as good. I had to substitue the yeast (WLP007 instead of British Ale II - Wyeast 1335).
