#ScottishAle

2025-04-23

The wee heavy has cleared up and is looking good.

A photo of a US pint swing top bottle that has Scottish ale in it. The color is sort of a medium reddish brown.. or I'd say dark amber but maybe I don't know what amber color is. I don't care, it's nice and clear after 2 days of being bottled from the first pull which technically was a push of a party faucet filling wand/hose.

Bottled the Scottish ale this morning. 78 brown bottles and 2 pints, one of which is shown and the other is plastic to get an idea on carbonation progress. About 2 hours of doings with cleaning up with much of the worlds problems grumbled about to self.

2 grams of sugar in the pints, and 1.5 grams in the 12 oz bottles to prime. Temperature at bottling was 60F or 15.5C.

Now I wait.

A man's index finger and thumb holding up a swing top pint bottle by the neck showing off freshly bottled beer. It is a sort of dark amber color, I guess. Cloudy but this was the first fill. The two pints had 2 grams of white sugar added for priming. The 12 oz bottles has 1.5 grams of white sugar added.
