Other stuff

I wanted to post earlier but haven’t gotten to it. I bottled my Chocolate Stout on April 15th. It still had a FG of 1.020.

Update on the stout. I tried one about 3 days ago in a test bottle. Still pretty flat but a really nice burnt coffee taste with a lot of chocolate taste. It was the amount of chocolate that I expected, but I’m sure it would be too much for connoisseurs of chocolate stouts.

Update on my Tripel. I took a hydrometer reading and it was at 1.017. That is down from an OG of 1.089. If it is the same in a couple days I will rack to secondary. I took a taste and it was about 5 oz of heaven. I am really excited to try it. It was strong (about 9.6%abv) and you could taste it AND feel it Maybe I’m a lightweight but I’ll have to be careful with this one.
