you'll love it..and once you taste it when you rack it into a secondary..you'll NOT want to age it all winter....you'll want to drink it up...trust me.
Also...I see that you cut down the ingredients to make a 5 gallon batch..my suggestion to you is that you make the full 6.5 gallon batch..because once you remove all the sludge and berry pulp..you'll end up with right at 5 gallons of finished product. If you start out at 5 gallons only..you are gonng end up under 4 gallons of final product.
