I brewed a Dragon Silk Stout and used Wild Turkey as the chosen Bourbon addition. Yum. I calculated the ABV at around 8.4% (OG 1.091, FG 1.028). Not huge but that's ok. I'm more interested in the taste then getting intoxicated. After 3 weeks of fermenting at room temperature I put two in the refrigerator. Both had zero carbonation. I am going to let them sit another month and try again. Yes, I added sugar to the bottling bucket. Maybe they just need more time. I am a patient man. My Imperial stout stayed in the fermentor for 8 months before bottling. I would have expected at least a little carbonation, but they had nothing. Two cases of flat beer doesn't seem appealing to me. More time or snafu?
