Still a bubbling
The Belgian is still actively fermenting! I had read that Belgian yeast strains can take their time, but this is a little surprising. The beer has now been bubbling for 9 days with no signs of stopping. We are now 11 days post pitch and still showing signs of active fermentation. It has slowed a bit, but in the carboy you can really see the action happen - pretty cool stuff! The color is a nice orange-gold, really can't wait for this to finish up! On another note, the pale is aging well. It is now very drinkable with a nice hop bite. There is no discernible hop fragrance or flavor unfortunately, I must have added the last hops too early. Still, turned out better than it started out so all in all I am happy with my first batch after a long layoff.
