After crashing out the carbonation as best I could, SG came out to about 1.0112, which is within expected FG range.
Taking the chance to try it before bottling, I gotta say… not as spicy as I was expecting, but it’s definitely got substantial kick to it. This is a sipping beer, lest you choke on the heat. As for the flavor profile… hard to say. Very mellow flavor notes, with low sweetness and bitterness. Definitely needs to age in a bottle before I start making claims to fame. But overall, this isn’t too bad! I don’t hate it, but it definitely needs work.
My experience is that if you make a brew which is good, but a bit rough around the edges, conditioning will remove the roughness and turn it into something really good - often better then the ones that seem to start out good.
