Brewed this today. Anyone ever add vanilla beans?
I have made this twice and added vanilla last time. It was good, but vanilla fades quickly! Drink it fast, or add more than you think you need so that when it levels out there is enough left.
This is a great beer but IMHO the slight acrid note that you get from the black barley is not the best match for vanilla. If I was making a vanilla version again, I would leave that malt out. YMMV.
