Wick's Home Brew

The recipe for my first batch of my very own home brew was intended to be a Fat Tire clone. Well, I do not believe that has happened. With the chocolate malts that were steeped into the beer it made for a mighty dark beer. When I first watched this process happen in July when we brewed up this recipe it sure enough smelled like a Fat Tire, but it did not look like one. Who says looks matter? Well, taste testing the two beers, the home brew was smoother and sweeter and didn’t have a tangy bite to it. So when I decided that I wanted to delve into the home brew industry I decided this would be my first batch to brew up. So I ordered all the ingredients. Well I guess I was confused on what type of chocolate malt grains to buy. So I bought two different kinds, pale chocolate and chocolate wheat. Well, they both smell outstanding. So after talking it over, it was decided to just use both grains.
