Someone in chat pm'd my for my Munich Barleywine recipe but my browser crashed and I lost the email address and was too drunk to remember who it was. Anyway here it is. This recipe took a silver medal at the Big Beers, Belgians, and Barleywines Festival in Vail, Colorado two years ago. Mighty tasty stuff.

Two words Bug: THANK YOU.
That stuff is awesome!

Cheers!

I've been wanting to try out this recipe ever since I heard you talk about it at NBC when Jamil was in town. One of these days I'll get around to it. It sounds very interesting!

Remember, the second rule of Brewers Code is to brew whatever Bugeater posts. I think I'll do that on New Years Day. Thanks, Wayne!

If I wanted to do this as a partigyle, any suggestions for what a good second runnings beer would be with this base malt?

i made this earlier this year, thanks bugeater, and did a mild with the second runnings which was lovely.
