And it dropped a point or 2 during the 2 week dry-hop. <br /><br />I'm still drinking the beer on draft right now. And I'm surprised how well the hops are staying with the beer, but there is now a subtle funk coming at the end of the aroma and taste. Almost like very ripe fruit and still no real noticeable tartness.<br /><br />I'm thinking a big Brett Only beer swap may need to be organized like they did 6+ years ago on Babblebelt.Jeffrey Cranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520169652639837640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-48659676407530909322012-06-16T17:12:57.012-07:002012-06-16T17:12:57.012-07:00Hi Jeff,

I see that yours got down to 1.007 at 2 weeks but I was wondering what your OG was?<br /><br />Your review sounds great, I wish I could have tried some.

I'll do that and let you know if it has changed.<br /><br />I took it off draft at my house to save some for the 9th. I'm carbing up my third pull from my sour solera.Jeffrey Cranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520169652639837640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-15234507945013206492012-05-31T06:51:43.558-07:002012-05-31T06:51:43.558-07:00Jeff, What was your total fermentation time?
