Alcohol Boost

It is a little up in the air.  The recipe and process say approximately 17 days, but this can vary a bit.  The recipe is in the September issue of BYO and is by Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head Brewery.

I haven't done an extract recipe in a while, so I think this will the next batch I make.  It seems intriguing.

 

Also, I should note that this beer is supposed to age very well, which isn't surprising based on the high alcohol %.  I plan to keep a few bottles to age as well.

 

Thanks for all that info.  I've been planing a big beer and after reading that I want to go really big! (shooting for 12%)

 

Sounds interesting, I might check it out, I need to fill some kegs and let them age so I'm not always tempted to refill them.

 

I am planning this one for next batch.  Since I am looking for an extract recipe for the next one (see my post on overnight mashing), this one fits the bill.  I will probably try to do this in a couple of weeks, so I can have a few bottles while we are still in the winter out here.  The rest will have to wait until next winter.
