#24 - CLEDRIS

Trying to recreate the DRIS in a somewhat scaled-down-refined sort of way. That was good, but it was a DM inducing sugar bomb that made my pancreas hurt. A lot. This was supposed to be a thick 10% stout, lots of roastiness, some sugary sweetness. Brewed and just bottled and just realized that I never posted it. 

NB - Had to change the recipe from the original because the brewshop somehow left the 1 lb DME out of my bag. Replaced it with brown sugar to get the ABV where I wanted it. Somewhat disappointed but hey.

Quick taste right now is pretty good. Very thick, viscous and hefty, nice roast but could be more intense, some nice earthy hop bitterness without a ton of hop flavor. Official review to follow once it's carbed up a bit.
