I bottled the Saison on 10-23-2007. It had a great look and nice taste to it. I think it is going to turn out fairly well. The final gravity was 1016. The original gravity was 1050. Taking into account temperature differences that works out to be a 4.7% ABV. It isn’t as strong as I was expecting. I am just hoping the beer attenuated well, so it isn’t too sweet. I will let the beer bottle condition for about 4 weeks before trying it out. It is definitely a beer that gets better with age, so I hope to save some for up to a year.
I also racked Brew 04 to secondary on 10-26-2007. It had a super fresh hoppy smell to it. I can’t wait to try some. This beer doesn’t really require a secondary fermentation, so I will probably only keep it in there for a week to give it some clarity.
