So I recently brewed my own verson of a Belgian strong Ale, and the OG was 1.080. I just checked it today after about 2 weeks and it is down to 1.014! I was looking for below 1.020, but am very happy with 1.014. Probably cause I used 2 lbs of homemade invert sugar and mashed fairly low, but what the heck! Thats like 8.5% ABV. Can't wait to bottle in another 2 weeks, and try it maybe 6 weeks from now. Damn these belgians take a lot of time!
On another note, I am washing the yeast and hope to make a lower ABV beer, so that it is ready sooner. Anybody have a good dubbel recipe (already perused the recipe section!) with some Special B and invert sugar? Thanks!
