I brewed up the AHS 1554 Clone back in July and bottled it 3 weeks later. I tasted a couple yesterday and they were barely drinkable. My OG was right on target at 1.060 but the FG was low at 1.011. AHS says it should have been 1.059 OG and 1.019 FG.
I was thinking on ways to salvage the 2 cases I have. I can think of two possible ways to fix it.
Either brew up a strong ALL malt batch to mix with it which is pain since it is already bottled.
Or
Prepare a batch of LME and water mix (half and half) so the LME will dissolve well. Then add a small amount of this mix into the glass before pouring the beer. Start with a few CCs and increase from there. Once I figure out how much it takes then just keep the jar in the fridge and a syringe handy.
It may never be a 1554 Clone, but at least it wont be Hop tea.
Any thought guys?
