The title is self-explanatory.

The wort sat on the yeast for 1 month before reaching 1020
And me and my friend are eager to drink it!
Question is, how long before dringing it?
I read that high gravity beers like this need A LOT of time to carbonate and to evolve into the right aroma/taste.
What is your experience with HG beers and waiting time?
Sincerely Yours,
Armanduzzo :fro:
