Jasmine Bottled
Yeah, that's about it. We bottled Jasmine tonight.
Basically, she's not good, but she's not bad either. Final alcohol: 10% by volume. That's a shitload. But it's defintately not shitty. She's got a good hop flavor, but could use more. We had a yield of more than 50 bottles, but we only sanitized 50 so we poured the rest out. With chilling and carbonation, she should be slightly better.
Final words: not a masterpiece, but a good beverage for getting drunk. Expect us to hone this recipe in the future and make it right. Until then, one week or two until she's ready.
Ophelia will be brewed either tomorrow (doubtful) or sometime next week (more likely), since I'm spending the weekend in Madison with DJ visiting Rachel. Name sound familiar? Yeah, that's our namesake girl, and we love her.
Cheers,
Sam
