my brewers best english pale ale is quit pale indeed. i was foolish and did not take an OG reading. it was supposed to be 1.044-1.048. i did take a FG reading and hit the target with 1.012 (predicted was 1.012-1.015). before i transferred to the secondary. today when i bottled i took one more reading and it was at 1.010.....why did it drop ? the hydrometer says that is a potential alcohol of 1% ! am i reading something wrong ? it smelled and tasted great but i guess it will not have much bang.
