Racking Clark's Manners
After 3.5 days of primary fermentation, Clark's manneres had slowed it's bubbling to 2-3 a minute and the Krausen was beginning to fall. It seemed prime time to rack it to secondary.The transfer was easy, and the current gravity is 1.009, down from 1030 suggesting an ABV of 2.9. It's a very mild mild. It has some carmel notes, hints of chocolate, and a fair amount of fruity esters grapes, buttery diacetyl and some citrus notes. I may have fermented it too warm. It seems a bit more Belgian than brittish, but it's still intriguing.
Brewing low ABV variants of Belgian classics would be quite a challenge.
