Brewed in September, has been in the primary until last night.
Starting gravity 1.081, finished at 1.006 @60f (took the measurement last night before bottling)
Of course, I tasted it and its "hot" (alcohol) hard to taste much beyond that.
Color in the carboy is dark, but in the test tube, has a nice clean slightly darker than "golden" color to it.
Yeast and 99% of the particulate had settled
I really didnt detect anything unusual that would lead me to believe anything went awry.
Smell was strong (alcohol) -- couldn't detect much beyond that.
I'm wondering what the minimum length of time I should wait before trying one that has conditioned in the bottle, I'm thinking around end of April?
Any advise is appreciated especially from anyone who as brewed this specific style, or even just "Belgian" styles.
