Finally brewed the black box challenge winning beer last night
Will you be using the sap instead of water or boil it down and add it as syrup later?
I'll be interested to hear how it comes out. I've read that the 'mapleness' doesn't come through from using sap and most just add syrup to the keg. Birch syrup is pretty potent stuff so maybe the sap is a bit more distinct.
I've been collecting maple sap every day for about a week... I have 12 trees taped and am only up to about 4ish gallons now, it's not running very well... I'm hoping to get 15ish gallons to make a maple saison and/or a wild blackberry maple stout.
