Title: Monocromicon Imperial Stout
Post by: Bossgigidy on August 25, 2018, 09:48:24 AM
Has anyone tried the northern monk Monocromicon Imperial Stout? Would love be to get a clone recipe close to it. Any ideas?

If you still have some you could test the SG. then work back from the stated 10% abv to find the OG.

Also I pulled this from the blurb
"Using nine different malts, three different FV additions and two different sugars,
we wanted to make a beer with massive layers of flavour and a depth that couldn't be ignored;
using the adjuncts to intensify the flavours within rather than mask them.
Additions of cherry, muscovado, cocoa, tonka bean help boost the natural dark malt flavours and complete this big beast of a beer."

I'm guessing the cherry, coco and tonka beans were the three FV additions but it would be fairly common to add sugar to the FV on a beer this big.

That's a good idea. Will research a bit more and give it a go
