Well, there will be a brown ale at some point, but my next beer (probably to be brewed on Thursday) is an oatmeal stout.

Here's the recipe that I've decided upon:

6.25 lbs. Baird's Maris Otter Malt
1.25 lbs. Briess 2-row
1 lb. flaked oats
.5 lb. roasted barley
.5 lb. Munton's 60L crystal
.25 lb. Breiss 120L crystal
.5 lb. breiss Victory malt

Mashed at 154 for 1 hour with a 167 degree mash out.

.75 oz. German Northern Brewer (9.2% AA) 60 min
.5 oz. Fuggles (4.0% AA) for 60 min
.25 oz. Fuggles for 20 min
.25 oz. Fuggles for 1 min
