So I swung by Zach & Russ' last night at about 1am to check up on the beer. Well, the beer is black. It also doesn't appear to be bubbling, swirling or churning.

Why is the beer black? I don't know. Black beers, like Guinness, get their dark color from a small amount of dark malt mixed in with the normal malt. We used the same malt we've always used. In the past, our fermentation has looked like dirty orange juice, but this time our beer is black. I am frightened.

Tomorrow, I will dry hop the beer, then add the gelatin on Thursday and bottle on Friday.
