Notes

A light, crisp Duvel-style Belgian strong ale. A Sotalien/Kronstad Bryggerier cooperation, jan 2015.

Fermentables "German" is standard German pilsner malt.

Sugars(cane and candi),boiled in 2l water added after height of primary ferm(44 hours after pitching). Due to fermentor capacity; about 40% of yeastfoam harvested/removed.

Priming and bottle fermentation with rehydrated safale 05. (recommended 1 mill cells/ml/plato), approx. 24 bill cells/1.5 gram of yeast. Plus priming sugar.

Note: This turned out to be one of our best beers ever. After about one year, it had a very smooth and complex taste. So most likely, this beer is suited for storage at least up to 12-14 months, probably longer. And it's worth the wait.

Final Gravity at 12, after long ferm.(Duvel is 7 or 8.)
