Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond my control, I have had to leave my brew in the fermenter for 6 weeks. The first chance I will get to bottle it is (maybe) Saturday.
The last time I took a gravity told me it was done, but since then I have had to wait, being away from home, etc. When I took that gravity I tasted it of course, and it tasted "okay" but the recipe is caramel witbier and it tasted very different from previous gravity checks. The only way I can describe it is it tastes pretty "strong." The abv is 6.3 which is exactly where it should be.
Please give me hope that the whole 5 gallons isn't ruined.
