Over a month ago I brewed what I thought was going to be an IPA, then OG came out at 1.095. I continued to be the problem by way under pitching a vial of wlp 001 (no starter mind you) it freaked out for 3 solid weeks. I let it settle another week and transferred it to a secondary to free up carboy and dry hop it. Its FG was 1.016, which I thought was nuts. It tasted a little sweet but not bad at transfer.
Will the long stressful fermentation give this IPA with a beard some funky flavors or am I just tripping out here.
I think I will call IPA with a beard cause I didn't plan and threw in way too many fermentables hence the 1.095 OG. It was meant to be a boy but now its a man.
