I bottled Yakistan Imperial IPA. It’s the first time I’ve bottled an entire beer in a couple years. I forget how much more work it is. Still, the process went fairly well, and I have roughly 20 x 22oz and a double magnum<\/a> of the IPA aging.<\/p>\n

The IPA finished with a terminal gravity of 1.021, which is right where it should be based on the yeast’s attenuation. That puts the ale sitting fairly heavily at 8.2% ABV. That’s a new record for me, but I wish I’d not bottled everything in 22oz bottles.<\/p>\n

Since it was in secondary for nearly 2 weeks, the clarity is excellent. I hope there is enough yeast still in suspension to carbonate it. The taste is great so far. There’s less aromatic hop than I wanted, but it has enough bitter back end to support the robust body. If I did it again, I would have dry hopped the beer in secondary. Look for bottles to appear in the next 3 weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
