From now on the fermentation process should be over and it’s time to go into a next stage with the newly born bio chocolate beer. The beer is being transferred in a new barrel. This barrel goes into a cooler for about 3 weeks. There were no additional herbs added.
The rest fraction of the yeast has been poured into a bottle. If you take a closer look at the picture you can see that there is an upper dark part, which contains beer and then there is a ground of dead yeast. The sugars have been completely changed into alcohol. The beer has an alcohol percentage of 8,9%. Which isn’t that bad.
The restfraction of the yeast looks like chocolate.
A first taste of the fermented liquid gave a sour taste with slight touches of cocoa. I hope to know more soon when lagering is over.
Cheers Alain
