The Palette of Aged Stouts Is 10 to 13 Plato.

A beer that's even 11 Plato to some people tastes dryer for, you know, and let's not add value to the term dryer in this case. I've kind of come to the point where I like things between 10 and 13 Plato as a finished blend. So 10 40 to like 10 52. And the reason for that is I think you get this happy balance between expression of malt and barrel artifacts across the full palette but enough body to support the alcohol intensity.
