It’s starting to be active. The airlock is bubbling even on the bucket. Need to take another gravity reading on 6/27/23. It shouldn’t take long for this one to ferment. Then I will be adding the dry hops.

Well it wasn’t clear but I bottled it anyway. To the keg I added about 3 oz honey, 1/2 tsp Potassium sorbate, 1/4 tsp metabisulfite.
To the bottles I added 1 cup Eurithrotal for sweetening and 1 bottle carbonation tab (looks like a piece of candy) per bottle. I can’t wait to chill and test this brew out. 21 days from start to bottling. F.G. = .998 with an abv of 6%
