The Tragedy of Tragedies

Today, I was racking a batch of mead when I broke my auto syphon. Man that sucks (or doesn't depending).

Apfelwein Bottled: Old Country Inn

Last night I bottled batch 4-002: Old Country Inn. This batch is Apfelwein although with a twist. I infused Old Country Inn with vanilla beans and cinnamon. Also, I used brown sugar instead of dextrose. Still it is quite dry but not as sharp. OG: 1.068; FG: 0.994; ABV: 10%.
