Everything Always Turns Out Okay In The End.

That's kind of been my life motto.

The Weizenbock ended up just fine.  Yes, the sparge did take forever, and yes, I was about 3/4 of a point shy of my original gravity (more brewer talk), but with a high gravity beer, I'm not concerned.

Now it's in the yeast's hands--or buds.

I'll pop in tomorrow to see if it's rolling along as it should.

On another note, I sampled the Oktoberfest today and I'm very happy with it.  It's amazing what 30+ days of lagering will do.  I hope to see you all out at St. Francis Brewery next weekend for our Oktoberfest celebration.  The event kicks off at noon on Saturday the 24th.  Free beer!
