Notes: Molasses in recipe is actually Sorghum (database only has White Sorghum, but want to estimate the color contribution of the dark Sorghum, so molasses is closest).
Pitch on to yeast cake harvested from Trappist Single. Start fermentation at 66° for 2-3 days, then let free rise into the low 70s.
Can add some dried raisins, cherries, figs, or prunes in secondary, to accentuate more of that character, if you want.
Bottle condition to 3.5 vol CO2 in heavier Belgian bottles, and add more yeast at bottling.
Can also enter the beer in the alternative fermentables category, if the sorghum character is noticeable enough.

Whisky cask aged with raisins soaked in rum. Warm, chocolatey and boozy with refreshing resinous bitterness and a lingering toasty biscuit background from the malt. Toasted oak comes courtesy of the barrels and spicy, sweet, dark fruit flavours from the rum soaked raisins. Soak oak chips in rum, then steep in the beer for the rum cash finish.

Notes: # Dark Phoenix
A classic dark mild ale based on my 8/8/8 (amber/brown/dark crystal) malt recipe. This recipe uses English Phoenix hops to add to the roasty and dark fruit notes coming from the malt by adding some other dark aroma notes such as black treacle.
This may be a small beer, but the Whitbread 1099 strain will leave a lot of the complex sugars made by the high mash temperature alone leaving quite a bit of body. It may be small on ABV, but it doesn't taste like it. A smooth refeshing dark drink with planty of malt character.
## Serving Notes
As the beer should have a sweet finish, serve at low carbonation (1.6 vol) as the acidity will cut the sweetness short. Recommend carbonation at 12C, 8 psi for 7-10 days. |
