beer -just brew it
i am hoping for some input from a brewer who has experience with barleywines.
i am planning on bottling my first one tomorrow but have 2 questions.
1) the og was 1.102 and now is 1.020 (within the style guidelines of 1.015-1.030) but on tasting my sample it seems quite sweet
will it mellow with bottle aging?
2) the recipe calls for 2/3 cup priming sugar at bottling
is it recommended to carbonate barleywine?
any input appreciated
