Notes
  1. After Primary fermentation is complete add champagne yeast to bring down the final gravity to as close to 1.002 as possible.
  2. Rack to secondary, add the Roeselare yeast for 6 months and add 2 oz. of oak cubes in a nylon bag, to be removed after 60 days.
  3. After 6 months of aging, add 6 lbs. of sour cherry puree for an additional 2-6 months.
  4. This can be used as the "aged" beer to be blended with a younger batch.
  5. Package in 750 ml. bottles using dextrose tablets. May need the help of bottling yeast (CBC-1).
