Zombie Cream Stout? Had a bit of trouble naming this one, so it takes some explanation. The original recipe comes from San Francisco Brewcraft, though the final form is an improvisation. The SFB recipe was handwritten and almost completely illegible: Qeeucli was eventually deciphered to Munich, Boilee to Barley. However, we hit a snag with Kcesaflie... None of the homebrew stores online list anything that seemed close enough to decode this cryptograin, so Brian (Scearce) resorted to running an agrep (approximate grep) through /usr/dict/words for a match... We saw "kestrel," "chevalier," and "vouchsafe," but nothing relating to grain. We even hit upon cerebrum... We weren't convinced that a half-pound of brains were quite right for brewing, but it led to the inevitable zombie jokes... BTW, ZCS has a nice creamy head on it. I gave up and called the store. Carafa. Anyway, now you have the story of the nummy cream stout that a few of you managed to get into this year.... it's time to let you in on the secret. This is by no means a complete recipe. You'll want to hit howtobrew.com/intro.html for a complete treatment of the issue. I record it here only for posterity.
