wallop

image of beerOh hey, looky here. Beer. Lots of it. I managed to get 34 pints out of this batch, same as last time. It seems to be my lucky number.

This is the second batch of the season, which I decided just tonight to call Packs A Wallop because it somehow ended up with a pleasantly peppery taste, and the yeast did their magic until they fermented the brew down to a final gravity of 1.014, giving it 7.5% alcohol by volume. I was shooting for a Belgian flavor and a lighter kick, but I’ll take this.

I won’t be bottling again for a couple weeks because the next batch isn’t even in the hopper yet. I bought all the ingredients the other day but I’m not sure when I’ll get the chance to brew again – maybe this weekend. By the time that batch is ready to be bottled, I should be able to pop open one of these and enjoy it while I stir in the hops.
