I've been holding onto a batch since January. I'm still hoping all the Brett I've added recently is going to drop my SG enough to make it drinkable. And add something different to what was supposed to be an imperial stout.

That's funny, Rob.  I also have a Stout I added Brett to a while back hoping it would make it better somehow.  It still doesn't taste great, but I'm leaving it for a year to see what happens. 
on tap: IPA
fermenting: Roseway Red, Rye IPA, Tripel, Flanders Red, Sour #1
Cellar: Roseway Red, IPA, Brett IPA, Orval Clone, Brett Red, Rye IPA, Grapefruit PA

I actually like the flavor of my stout. Aside from the fact that it's too sweet, finished at 1.035 so I'm just hoping the Brett will knock that down enough to salvage it.


It's been a couple of months so I'm going to check the SG this weekend to see if it's working yet.

Mine's already at 1.002, so I don't know if much more will happen other than developing more Brett character as time goes on.  Either way, a worthy experiment!

Always, especially with Brett!
