Back off Chipmunks.

Brewed up the infamous Chipmunk Porter two weeks ago. Don't know why I don't have any data on it.

But it's gonna hit the gas tonite. Stout will be out and I need to get this carb'd up by next week end.

Just a quick history on this beer. This was one of the first recipes I came up myself. I had no idea what styles were, I just knew what flavors I wanted.

I hit the House of Homebrew, get my grains and head home. Set the bag of grains on my work bench and run in the house to grab some other supplies.

In the 5 minutes that I was in in there, two (probably more) chipmunks tore open the bag an ran off with facefulls of my grain.

(no I didn't reuse it)

Oh wait, I forgot the recipe…

9 lbs Maris Otter

.5 lbs chocolate malt

.25 lbs special b

.25 roast barley

.75 lbs 60L

1 oz fuggles @ 60

1 oz fuggles @ 15

Windsor yeast. Mashed @ 154

Good base beer I think. This batch I subbed EKG hops and used 04 yeast. I think would also be good with some late cascades. But I likes me some fuggles.

And will be brewing this weekend. I know it's Amber in the rotation, but I got the itch for SNPA.
