I guess it isnt THAT crazy but I have a Belgian Tripel in primary:
-1.08 OG
-FG should be 1.01
-Opened it after 2 weeks to take a hydro reading but there was still a thick cap of foam so closed it back up
-2 days after opening it, foamed up into airlock and I rigged a blowoff tube, and it is still bubbling, 3 weeks total in primary
I can hear it bubbling every 30 seconds or so still, so going to give it more time before I open it to check the gravity and/or bottle.
Is this strange? I know there is a good amount of fermenting that needs to be done with a 8% ABV beer, but I am still surprised it isnt finished yet.
