Ok well I had some of my kegs filled at a local brew pub for a birthday party .. ( my stock was running low ) one of the brews they gave me I cant stand. I have to fix it somehow. Its as light in color as a blonde but has an ABV of 9.5% it reminds me of that high gravity steel reserve but not quite as bad .. I am not a malt guy at all so I have to fix it .. First thought is to dry hop the hell out of it, but I wonder how many oz's of hops it would take .. I buy them by the pound, and have plenty in the freezer but I dont want to use a pound per keg and still have a nasty result .. second though it to water it down by 1/2 ... double the volume, taking the ABV to a sane level and ad some more hops, hell I could even boil them in 5 gallons of empty water for an hour to get a good amount of IBU's in there ... Has anyone ever done something like this before ?
