My Gruit Ale

wow, that's a high OG, what color is the wort?  Let us know how it turnes out.

 

Ha, sorry about the previous post, I guess I missed your last entry on page 1.  Yea, I guess it would have been real dark, can you taste the alcohol?

 

that jager taste may be the bog myrtle shining through, i was told it gives i very herby / medicinal flavor.

 

Tried another today and i retract my statement.  This crap is horrible.  Down the drain it goes.

That sucks man...having to kill a batch.  Maybe you can let it condition, and gift it out at the holidays.....

 

time heals some beer wounds

 

That sounds like the same results I had on my Wormwood beer.  After attempting a Yarrow (with halfway decent results) I recently tried Wormwood as a bittering agent.  YIKES!  It could choke a horse.  I even tried to dry hop a bit of it to mask the wormwood flavor.  No dice.  Now I know why you pour absynthe over sugar cubes.....
