I read online that one could clone tuthankamon ale... i followed the recipe for an extract brew with amber + wheat extracts. Used some WY1214. Juniper berries and coriander... Boiled (full boil) for 15 minutes... I punched the yeasts bag and waited about 2h before I threw it in... Temp was perfect, OG was a bit high but I didn't mind, knowing that the yeasts I was using could survive worst than that...
Brewing took a very long time to start, at least 4 days... Smelled like rotten eggs... I didn't do anything, I just waited for it to stop and stabilise... I then proceeded to bottling (500ml p.e.t bottles) carbing with table sugar. I also kegged a gallon (no sugar)
Some black dots are floating, I think it's just residue from the juniper berries...
The taste after 3 weeks : SOUR... Very very very sour... It tastes quit exactly like an old Lambic style beer...
Is it ruined? Or is there anything to do? How about I just tell my friend, look, i just brewed a Lambic!??? Will it kill anyone? I got quite a good buzz by drinking a 500ml bottle to myself.
