Just ordered one
Have you got a decent RIS recipe you’d be happy share?
Not my recipe but I will be brewing something similar
This beer came first in the porter and stout category in this year's Irish NHC competition with a score of 43. It's probably the only good stout I've ever made, though not for lack of trying! It's a pretty big beer and so it really needs plenty of aging time to mellow out. There is a lot of roasted barley in this but don't worry, the high FG and residual sweetness help to balance it out. One thing to make sure of is to pitch big, I made a small batch of mild first then used the full yeast cake for this and it really exploded out of the FV which is always a good sign!
