Molasses Cider

Ingredients:

5 Gallons of Apple Juice
24 oz of Molasses

Yeast: Red Star Pasteur Champagne

OG 1.068

28NOV2011: I didn't want this to get too dry as can happen quite easily with this yeast. I've been checking for the past two days and I hit 1.020 today so I moved it to the keg and stuck it in the freezer where it is currently carbing. Hopefully this stops fermentation. Tastes really good, even while warm and flat. ABV at 6.4%
