I have a wyeast Brett C. packet from 4/15. It's been sitting in my fridge, i forgot about it. Any thoughts if it's still viable at all or think all cells are dead by now?
Thanks all!
I'm working on a low alcohol beer, something kinda like Bells low cal, or a low alc. IPA/pale type beer. This is what I'm thinking of, let me know your thoughts. Trying to make sure the body is decently full considering the lighter abv and IBUs are balanced so not overly bitter and has good...
I have a whole gallon of maple syrup, i was just saying that I have an extract as well to add in some additional flavors if I want if the dosing of maple syrup doesn't do anything to it...
