I recently did the Dogfish 120 clone recipe that is posted online based on a "Can You Brew It" segment on Brewing Network. My issue with it is that even though I followed all the instructions, the Super High Gravity Yeast strain tuckered out at about 18.5% abv and is sitting stuck @ 1.046.
I have done a few checks over the past week and a half and it has not dropped in FG at all leading me to believe that it is finished. Initial tastes prior to chilling and carbonating, and this beer is just way to sweet!
Any suggestions on a way to get the FG to drop when the abv is already @ 18.5%, meaning most yeast would not be able to survive if I pitched another starter of yeast.
