After (a somewhat explosive) primary and secondary fermentation, the
second batch of Rye Stout was ready for bottling 3.5 weeks after brew day.

| Setting up to bottle this batch of Rye Stout |
This brew finished at 1.010, corresponding to an ABV of
6.0%. It's slightly lower alcohol content than the
first batch of this brew, but I knew it could be fine with a little dilution due to it's malty character.

| "Factory sealed" |
From this batch, I was able to bottle 53 12 oz bottles and 3 22 oz bottles, a total liquid volume of 5.5 gallons. The flavor was on point; malty with a slightly roasted character. The rye malt does wonders to balance out the flavor profile.

| Lots of beer to drink! |
Although I don't usually make the same recipe twice, this beer is definitely one I will likely make annually because of how much I like it. Cheers!
