I have bottled all of the Honey Pilsner ale into both bombers and 12oz bottles. It came out to a final gravity of 1.012. This makes it an estimated 4.61% abv.
We also tasted the blueberry wine I bottled awhile back and it tastes complex and smooth, with a very fruity blush wine taste. The only thing I am not happy with, is a sulfur taste. But hopefully that will fade with time.

Blueberry Wine Bottled
I bottled my blueberry wine last night. After racking if off fruit it ended up only filling up a half gallon carboy which in turn ended up up only being 5 12 oz bottles. Unfortunately I did not take the initial gravity so there is no way to get the alcohol content, but there is a definite burn when we tasted it a couple weeks ago. Aging will hopefully diminish that burn and bring the blueberry/fruity taste out more.

Previously Fermenting
So this is what I had in carboy previous to this blog.
-A Peach Mead
-Blueberry Wine
-Orange/Tangerine Wine
-Apple Wine
The only one I am actually excited about is the peach mead. The orange and apple wine were the first things I ever brewed and they are thin rocket fuel with a sulfur taste. The blueberry definitely has the potential for greatness. It has a great berry taste but its rocket fuel with some sulfur in there too, so I plan on letting it age and mellow out. The mead was made from clover honey and frozen peaches picked from parents property. The peaches were pureed and still haven't settled out, but its been less than a month.
