A sample of my BDSA - three months on figs, just added some oak & white ash honeycomb for six weeks. Then il pitch some more yeast and bottle condition for nine months. This should be a gem a year from now.

Here is my American Barleywine. Brewed about 9 months ago, and bottled in October. I tried one after 6 weeks of bottle conditioning and it was carbed but still pretty harsh. 2.5 months later and it's mellowed considerably, but needs some time to age still.

If I remember correctly, the grain bill was 70% pils and 30% munich (I did a parti-gyle with 1/3 this and 2/3 German dampfbier) and the hops were loosely based on Troegs' Nugget Nectar. Fermented with US-05, this is around 12% ABV and 100+ (theoretical) IBU.

I only got 12 bottles total so I don't plan to try it again until maybe next fall, and will have 2 bottles a year for the next 5 years.

Just pulled another glass of Dark Wheat off my keg. I can hardly believe how clear it is. This was the first time I used gelatin in the keg.
