There are a zillion stout recipes out there, but I'm trying to brew one with particular characteristics. Do you know of a recipe that is:
- dark to the point of a Russian Imperial Stout
- not dry
- tending toward malty instead of hoppy
- tan, lasting foam
- smooth, but not a milk stout. No after bite of bitterness (my RISs always have that bite)
- doesn't drink like a syrup
- oak and vanilla notes preferred
I've been reading Chris Colby's articles, reading lots of recipes, and nothing seems like what I want.
Ideas?
