Aeatherion

This is definitely a winner!

Brewed 10/28/05. OG = 1.071 FG = 1.022 Overcarbonated, so will knock the molasses used for priming down by 1/2 next time. Wonderful malty aroma with hints of raisin & plum. Not catching much from the whiskey in the oak chips, either in aroma or flavor, which is good. Nice slightly dry finish (from the oak chips?) with a good, balanced hop finish. Very pleased with how this turned out! Plan to enter in upcoming competitions, will post results.
