Sounds tasty with the toasted oats

Those toasted oats have been calling out to me since I got that book at Christmas

Looks like a very interesting recipe

+1 on that!

NICE work Mr C - you REALLY are on one crazy ass brewing mission of a week hey!

Loving the name too

Excellent name ... until your beer turns out to be thin, shrill and unlikeable.

that is what the wife said

from this weeks Popbitch, how apt:

Janet Street Porter walks into a bar and asks
"Can I get a large aperitif?". The barman looks
at her and says, "I seriously doubt it, love."

+ one for the name
