Watch out for this beer. When it's good and done, it'll be taking names and kicking asses. I just siphoned it into the secondary fermentor and it tastes amazing pre-coffee with a mixture of bitter chocolate, burnt/roasted grains (already coffee-like flavors), and a little kiss of citrus hops from the Willamette I threw in.
I also now weighs in at 6.7% ABV. Apparently I underestimated my brewing efficiency and this baby is becoming a bit of monster. Damn this beer is going to rock.

Pabst Blue Ribbon - 5.0%
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale - 5.2%
Anchor Porter - 5.6%
Olde English 800 - 5.9%
Colt 45 - 6.0%
Schlitz Malt Liquor - 6.2%
