Im about to bottle a batch of american style amber ale and im thinking about using honey instead of priming sugar. If anyone has any input it would be greatly appreciated.

Sort of a misplaced post (this thread is about priming, not boosting ABV with honey). However, adding honey will certainly achieve the goal that you're after. Without more recipe details, I can't give much more of an opinion than that.40ozOLDe said:i put honey in my wort, thought it may cause problems b/c of the sugar but i wasnt sure, it was in my brew kit though. what do you all think.
my reasoning for this before i get flamed was higher Alcohol content
