Blasphemy Easter Stout - Bottling

Brewed - April 4
Secondary Fermentation begins - April 18
Bottled - May 31

So I had that one in Secondary for 6 weeks. Hope that wasn't too long.

OG - 1.046
FG - 1.017

I messed up and took my hydrometer sample after I'd added the priming sugar, so the FG should probably be a little bit lower. As it is now, the abv of this baby is looking to be about 3.25% (is that even worth drinking?)

I'm looking forward to tasting this one. The countdown to June 14 begins.

In the mean time, I'm planning to brew a Wheat beer this week. I love a good wheat beer in the summertime, so I have some motivation to not leave this one sitting in the fermenter for way too long.

I have this Imperial Stout in secondary right now. Its been there for about 6 weeks. I'm excited to drink it. But I two messed up. It was suppose to have an O.G. of 1.09...I boiled the thing over and its at 1.074 O.G. I'm a little bummed, but it should still work out.

So, what I'm trying to say is. A yummy 3.25 beer should suffice, especially if its got the flavor character your looking for!

Good musings my friend!
