OG 1.054

2019 11 09 - prime and bottle FG 1.008
68°F = 0.85 residual carbonation want 2.5 vol CO2
2.5 vol CO2 - 0.85 residual = 1.65 vol CO2
from chart select 1.68 vol CO2 add 128 g corn sugar

Tasted beer just before Thanksgiving -
medium-light mouthfeel, subtle apple, pear, pomice esters
fine bubbles; a little too much carbonation; a little prickly
very tasty
