Notes
4/8/19 - The fermentation on this beer was crazy! I had to replace the airlock 3 times due to krausen blowing out the top.
4/11/19 - Transferred onto 2.6 oz toasted oak cubes. SG=1.008. Subtle alchohol notes, but not overpowering. Nice deep malt character with dark fruit notes. Should turn out to be a good beer with the oak cubes. I may add some wine from another batch that I have oak cubes soaking in wine for to give a wine-barrel aged character. NOTE: The secondary fermenter I transferred this to is one dedicated to sours, so this may pick up some funk, but I'm ok with that.
4/27/2019 - Kegged. FG=1.008. Subtle oak notes with a nice dark fruit character. I decided to add some wine that had been soaking on some oak cubes previously used to age sours, so one more potential for picking up some funk down the road.
