Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 clone

I made this beer with a bit of a modified recipe and it took 1st in the Belgian category and 3rd in BOS - I'd highly suggest making this beer!! Mine came out to approximately 11.7% ABV - while it was a little warm, it was still very delicious.

Ingredients
----------------

8.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) Bel (3.0 SRM) Grain 42.11 %
8.00 lb Pilsner (2 Row) Bel (2.0 SRM) Grain 42.11 %

1.00 oz Northern Brewer [8.50 %] (90 min) Hops 25.7 IBU
1.00 oz Styrian Goldings [4.10 %] (20 min) Hops 7.0 IBU
0.50 oz Hallertauer Hersbrucker [2.80 %] (20 min)Hops 2.4 IBU

3.00 lb Dark 2 Belgian Candi Syrup (160.0 SRM) Sugar 15.79 %
WLP 530 (Make a 2-3L starter)

Primary Fermentation: 14 days at 68
Secondary Fermentation: 14 days at 68
Additional Fermentation: Bottle condition for 3 weeks

I just transferred this recipe to the secondary. So far, it's fermented from an OG of 1.070 to 1.014. Given how explosive the fermentation was, I'm shocked it still may have more to go! 2 more weeks before bottling...at least.

And it tastes amazing! This is going to be a serious ale--should keep me very warm this winter!
