About me I've been a computer programmer since I first started typing in program listings on a Commodore Vic 20 when I was about 8. My hobbies include electronics, CNC manufacturing, photography, beer and winemaking.
I live with my wife and lots of left-over parts from unfinished projects in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA.]

(adapted from the Horn Dog Barley Wine recipe in Clone Brews; Clone
Brews offers mini-mash and all-grain versions of this recipe)
My half-batch came out very dark and not at all hoppy. The original recipe
calls for 9 months of bottle conditioning, but I found it to be very pleasant
after just 2 months. I prefer to split a (12oz) bottle with a friend. This is
quite enough to lend a pleasant feeling of warmth. It's said to keep at cellar
temperatures for 2 years, but I doubt this has ever been experimentally proven.
Pairs well with left-over ginger triple-chocolate wedding cake.
Style: English Barley Wine
OG: 1.103-1.104
FG: 1.023-1.024
Est ABV: 10.2%
Recipe for 5 gallons:
