I love saaz - one of my fav. hops. I brewed a double about 2 years ago, it took 3 months to get in the bottle and another 9 in them. From there, about 3 weeks to vanish.

Cultured the yeast from a bottle of chimay.

Old ales, strong ales and the like need a fair amount of time.

My cyser is now a few years old and tasting great.

After 2 years my strawberry mead finally finished fermenting and cleared.

I thought it was done but I was wrong. Looks like red water now. Clear as crystal.
