Taste Notes

3/4 gallon short on boil volume, but 7 points high on pre-boil gravity. Added 1/2 gallon of RO water to kettle pre-boil to get pre-boil gravity to 1.052. Reduced boil time from 2hr to 1hr 45min to avoid high OG. Dead nuts on OG. 1/2 gallon high on volume.

Notes

Half the batch will be fermented with neutral yeast (WLP001, 1.5l starter) and finished in a Jack Daniels barrel that has been used 4 previous times (RIS, Barleywine, Oud Bruin, Oud Bruin). The second half will be fermented in glass with Roselare blend (3763, no starter) for primary fermentation then racked into secondary on Medium French Oak spirals for finishing/souring.
