Rotund Breakfast Stout

Above is the label for my Rotund Breakfast Stout.  This is an original creation and my first all-grain homebrewed bier.  This is an excellent session bier, and a fine example that shows off the versatility of the Oatmeal Stout style.

Here's the Recipe

5# Marris Otter

.8# Quaker Whole Oats, toasted to the color of Caramel 60 malt

.625# American Chocolate Malt

.5# British Roasted Barley

.5# Caramel 60

.5# Carmel 120

Mash at 155 degrees F. 

1.2 oz Kent Golding hops boiled for 72 mins.

Pitch 1 packet Safale S-04

IBUs 26

SRM 40

S.G. 1.039

F.G. 1.015

ABV 3.3%

Fermentation of this low alc. bier only took about 4 days.  My final gravity finished a little high, but I'm hoping it'll drop a couple of points in the secondary.  This is the clearest bier I've brewed thus far, the yeast accounts for that.  The Hydrometer sample tasted great, lots of roasted coffee flavors!

Old Peculiar Ale Label

Above is an Old Peculiar bier label I designed for my clone homebrew of the original Old Peculier bier.  The back ground is distressed metal.  The character is Gabby Hayes the old western movie actor.  Always enjoyed the peculiar characters he played.
