Ok, I have a overly watery nut brown ale thats getting ready to go to secondary within a few days. I have recently run into a cheap supplier of local honey that would be willing to donate some in exchange for some beer (a 12 pk or so).
My question is this: If I were to heat/cool (sterilize) some honey and add it to my secondary fermenter, rouse the yeast in the primary then rack to the secondary, do you think that I could restart fermentation and pull a little bit more alcohol content from this weak (4.2-4.5% potential) ale and smooth it out with that honey flavor?
