    Not sure how to title this. FG after 2 years really high.

    *can't change the post title. FG not ABV. On 3.24.12 we brewed a sour. Our third in the pipeline. It will be two years old in the carboy next weekend so we're looking at it being ready to bottle. Tasted it and it's good. Interesting but nothing off flavor-wise. (rounded the numbers) 23%...

    My first attempt with dregs and some questions

    I am doing my first sour this weekend. A variant on a Flanders Red. In the secondary I am going to add 1oz oak cubes and pitch Wyeast 5112. Now I have a 4-pack of both Goose Island's Matilda and Sofie. My girlfriend loves the Matilda but she can't very well finish off (or want to) all of them...
