Brother dorf's strong

I've done this beer about 5 times now and this just hits the spot for a big alcohol beer, try to ferment warm up to 75 deg. It won't last long so put some aside to age. Breaking news::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Brother Dorf Wins bronze in the Cascade Brewers club contest for 2009
