Notes

Halve figs, roast 250F until soft, sprinkle with some brown sugar, roast 350F for 20m. Blend to a slurry with the remaining sugar and a little of the wort; add to boil for last 10 minutes.

This is basically Jamil Zainasheff's Black Scapular Dubbel recipe scaled to 1.1 gallons with the white sugar substituted with caramelized figs and brown sugar.

Hops aren't terribly important; pick a noble hop and bitter to about 20 IBU.

Ferment 7 days at 64F free-rising to 77F after the first few days.
Lower to 50F and hold 14 days; bottle.
