Hi All,
It has been a rather long time since I last visited this fine forum, however I have not stopped brewing you will be pleased to know!
Why oh Why did I not start doing this earlier in my life!?
Anyway, I have a rather random query:
Brewed a Coopers Aussie Lager on March 5th. Sat in the FV for a solid three weeks (may even have been longer). Transferred it to my latest purchase, the 5 gallon pressure barrel. Everything ticking along nicely.
Now, I have a friends 30th birthday coming up very soon and I have dedicated these 5 gallons to to party. I wish I had known this when I made the brew, as I would have added something to give it a bit of a ginger flavour. The reason being that my friend is ginger and proud of it.
So... my question to you is, at this very late stage (the beer is ready to drink) could I throw in a bottle of Crabbie's Ginger Beer directly into the pressure barrel? Or is that just a ridiculously stupid idea and I should chalk this up to experience and improve my planning skills?
Many Thanks in advance!
