So I brewed this 4 weeks ago it's the first brew I did with my #Minimashtun!
It's been carbing X1.5 volumes (cos I'm wierd) and it's finally ready (ish).

Recipeness:

OG 1.046
SG 1.012

ABV 5.46%
EBC 70!!!!
IBU 40...

60min mashes

Grainage:

1000g Pale ales
35g Roasted Barleys
67g Chocolates (Said like Forest Gump)
130g Crystal 90L

Hoppages:

5g Challenger @ 60mins
5g Fuggles @ 60mins
5g Bramling cross @ 15mins
5g Bramling cross @ 0mins

Tastes:

It's like someone has turned the flavour up and then added a spicy bit to the end! I've just drunk some and the chocolate basically has a fight with the roasted barley but the malt guy got involved aswell and started punching my tonsils... But the ending of this story is relatively bitter yet everyone is friends in the end.

If I made this again I'd cut down on the chocolate and the barley and then cut the IBU's this was one of my first tries creating a recipe so I'm impressed it's even drinkable!

If you do try this recipe enjoy!
