Cracked open a Bottle, couldn't wait!

Post by WishboneBrewery » Wed Feb 11, 2009 9:49 pm

Coopers stout with 1Kg Dark Spray malt: Bottled Sunday, so only in its third day of bottle conditioning.
Pleasantly surprised with the hiss as the crown cap came off, though it could do with a little more conditioning to increase the carbonation just a tad!
I'm getting Bonfire toffee, liquorice with the liquorice bringing a sweetness across the pallet after swallowing, subtle bitterness.

not at all bad, and it should get better with age, will brew again :)
I might be silly and go for some Muscovado sugar and a few extra hops in the next one ;)

My facial hair in different and only temporary!

I actually did some careful slurping to judge what I was tasting :)
