I've got a Belgian Trippel in secondary. Primary 2 weeks, secondary 2 weeks so far. When I racked to secondary, the ABV was at 9.1%. I'm wondering how long I need to condition this beer. The taste at 2 weeks was nice, but a bit harsh... alcohol-wise. It was a very nice tasting beer, but I want to get the most out of this one. I've never brewed a big beer like this so I'm not sure how long to bottle condition to get the most out of it. How long should I condition/age this beer before drinking it? I plan to bottle some time this week. I generally use 1 oz priming sugar per gallon, but I'm thinking since I'm going to bottle condition for an extended period, I'll lower that to about .75 oz per gallon.
Thoughts?
