So I brewed an english pale ale that I added a bottle of Lyle's Golden Syrup, and the beer came out as 8% and had a thick and syrupy taste/mouthfeel. Luckily the FG is really close to what the book American Sour Beers suggest to use as a sour base.
My idea was to take 2-3 gallons out of the 5 gallons, top with water to make a regular session ale, then put about a gallon of beer into gallon growlers to experiment with different microbes. So far I have the following ideas of dosing my jugs:
Am I somehow forgetting something that won't allow me to do this? Has anyone done something like this as well with small one gallon batches?
