couple months ago i brewed a winter beer. biggest one i've ever brewed. i took my 6.5% abv smoked porter recipe and bumped it up to over 10%. all grains too, no sugar or extract to elevate it. Maxed out my mash/lauter tun as it required 25# of grains to hit that mark. It's been kegged and aging. It ended up at 10.2% and it's good. I was expecting some alcohol bite at first, but the blend of grains was just right.
I've got 5 gal of it that I've been sipping on. I like to blend in some of my pumpkin ale with it. Makes a real nice evening beer.
The rest:
half a case of Banquet
5 gal of 4.3% abv apple ale - homebrew 5 gal of 6% pumpkin ale - homebrew 5 gal of 7.6% late hopped red ale. Centennial & Amarillo - homebrew
1 bottle of Left Hand's 2012 Fade to Black (Rocky Mtn Black Ale) 1 bottle of Schlafly's 2012 Christmas Ale 750ml of O'Dell's 2011 Bourbon Barrel Stout
