So, I had this beer (a Porter) with a tendency to explode a little bit, but it makes for a pretty fountain.

  • and they got drunk as hell that night and lived happy all their life

  • @Jocke1336 Yes, that is basically what happened!

  • how long did you let it bottle for? maybe a bit longer

  • It was bottled at least two weeks... I would worry that any longer and the house might have gone up!

  • how did it taste

  • despite loosing a good deal of carbonation, it was still rather delicious!

  • misplaced a decimal in your priming calculations, did we?

  • The beer needs a few tablespoons of sugar, not cups! LOL

    Glad you saved some for drinking. :)

  • you either over primed or didnt let it condition long enough, 2 weeks isnt enough time for all the co2 to go back into the beer which is why this prolly happened.

  • too much sugar

    

  • I guess be lucky it didn't shatter the bottle?

  • LMAO! A fountain of beer!

  • Carbonation for the win!

  • You can make your beer do the same thing if you put a whole leaf hope inside the bottle. It will make a nice eruption like that and spit out the hop. it is pretty cool and adds some different flavor to a beer.

  • So I guess you have figured out by now that the beer was still fermenting when you bottled it huh :) I did the same thing with an Irish stout. Hydrometer!

  • very cool
