Cascade Dark Ale
Racked into the oak last night, and I had interned to dry hop in the barrel, then I realized how tiny the bung hole is and decided I'm going to dry hop later.
I think I'm going to call this beer The Hop burner, with just shy of 8oz of hops and only 63IBU's. I found another open 1oz pouch of hop pellets in my freezer. I'm apparently very wasteful with my hops.
Any way well see how it goes with the oak, when I put it in the barrel the coffee roasty flavors where the dominate notes. I'm thinking head retention won't be an issue with this beer. In 10 days my yeast took it from 1.083 to 1.024 (I didn't temperature adjust so it may be lower).
