Notes

I decreased IBU from base recipe, hoping for more acidity from the lacto.

Added dregs from a Bruery Oude Tart, Drie Fonteinen Gueze, allagash ghoulship, bfm bon chien.

14.5 brix @ 4.8 gal, will dilute to 5

4/20/2016: 1.008 grav, moderately sour, still some sweetness/malt in the background, pleasing.

9/10/2016: 1.005 grav, smells a tiny bit horsey, tastes pretty sour, not much sweetness anymore. putting on 2 pounds dry black currants`
