July 8, 2025This recipe is available as an Aussie Brewmakers Recipe Kit, order no. 19880
This recipe is an Aussie Brewmakers original. It is a ‘take’ on a great winter beer the chocolate Stout. This recipe is a ripper for those cold evenings up here in the high country and will appeal to anyone who loves a Stout that is just a bit different. This recipe is another great introduction to experimenting with hops and wet malts for the beginner or ‘tin kit’ brewer.
