Competition Helles is carbonating, and I pulled a small sample. It's not like "holy crap this is great", but it's not bad at all. I'll make it again, but just add more hops next time. It seems "lacking" to me, and yes, it's according to style, but it's just a bit bland for my tastes. There's a hint of that "flavour" I didn't like but by far the most of it lagered out. Overall a very, very lightly flavoured beer, and I think it might actually be a bit too "light", if that can be. It's a beer that went down to 1.009 from 1.048, so it packs a 5.1% ABV punch, but you wouldn't tell it from the taste.
I don't know if it's just my blocked nose, but to me it tastes like a Windhoek that's been mixed with water. This will get you very drunk, very fast, because it drinks like water. Guess I'll have to wait and see what the judges have to say.

Looking to brew a sweet stout and would like some recipe suggestions please.
I've seen this recipe, which I also noted someone else on here brewed recently, for a toasted marshmallow milk stout. I like the idea of a the vanilla notes, but no idea if this is just a bit of a gimmick... https://www.clawhammersupply.com/blo...k-stout-recipe.
Would appreciate some suggestions on vanilla/chocolate/coffee/etc. stouts that people have made and enjoyed! Thanks!!

Oktoberfest seems done. 7 days today. Maintained 10psi pressure throughout. 4 points higher than expected FG. Could be 2 reasons.
1. The amount of caramel malt
2. Mash temp was supposed to hold 67 but might have not hold steady and I did manual readings during mash at around 68c
Still the odd air bubble so will leave it 1 more day before the crash. 1.015 confirmed with hydrometer.
Needs to be crashed and kegged by Saturday otherwise I would leave it longer.
Had a taste. It is super carbonated. No off flavours. Very lager tasting with a touch of sweetness.
I raised temp 1c just to try get the last bit done.
