Brewing with Peter 1

The brew day with Peter went awesome. No major issues at all. As you can see we have quite a bit of pizza and drinks to go around!

This was the first beer Femme Fatale did using a starter. We pitched 1100 ML of yeast into 6 gallons of wort. Boy did it take off! It took off too much in fact.

Oh no overflow!

So after cleaning up the mess and putting a blow tube off, the beer continued to do what it was doing best, turning sweet sugars into even sweeter booze. The beer is already at 10% ABV with no off flavors. I can’t wait for this one to age.
