Hey all,
I am looking at doing another Dark Ale, but with a difference, not something way out there, but not your standard Dark Ale, and not a Stout either.
Currently have the following ingredients:
1 x Can Coopers Dark Ale
Safale S-04 Yeast
1Kg Coopers Brew Enhancer 2
Dark Brown Sugar
300g LDME
Tea Bag Fuggles Hops
Tea Bag Goldings Hops.
Not limited to these ingredients, but due to time constraints and such like was going to explore using any grains this time around.
Whilst the above ingredients would make an OK Dark Ale, and I have made a few before and the last was a good one IMHO (http://www.homebrewandbeer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4205&highlight=dark+ale)
So any thoughts about other ingredients to add or styles to clone with at least the above ingredients, something Belgiumy or German or whatever.
Look forward to any ideas.
Cheers
