My perspective labels for my Grape Ale. Thoughts?
Great place to start off making personalized labels for your home brew
So I poped the top on my Grape ale yesterday to check the gravity and this is what I found. I'm not sure exactly what it is. It may be a contamination of some sort, but I really don't know. It has the viscosity of a the cream layer on top of curdled milk. I tasted the beer, it tastes good still with no apparent flavor issues. It is sitting at a gravity of about 1.050. It is in secondary, I added 1gal of Grape syrup to the Belgian base when I transferred it from primary. The brew was at 1.022 at that transfer. Any one have any thoughts or comments? ?
I need a little help if anyone would care to give some advice. Check out @immoosbrews's Tweet:
Racking to secondary on top of the grape syrup. It tastes is good, just the right amount of bitterness you would expect from the combination of Warrior and Cascade hops. Sitting at about 4.4% ABV right now.
Potential for problems
So 24 hours after placing the Grape Red Belgian into I went to check on the bucket only to find that my air lock was lacking in water. In dismay I hurried and filled the air lock and waited. With great relief the bubbles began almost immediately. Time will tell if any contamination was allowed in but I am hopeful at this point.
