ive been using AI a lot lately, realized just now that it can dig a lot deeper than a standard google search to find information on commercial beers.
Just got:
| Beer Variant | ABV | Estimated Original Gravity (OG) | Estimated Final Gravity (FG) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chimay Blue | 9.0% | 1.080 – 1.090 | 1.010 – 1.012 |
| Chimay White | 8.0% | 1.070 – 1.075 | 1.008 – 1.012 |
| Chimay Red | 7.0% | 1.061 – 1.064 | 1.008 – 1.010 |
| Chimay Gold | 4.8% | 1.044 – 1.048 | 1.006 – 1.008 |
and just now as i post this i searched and got:
| Beer Variant | ABV | Estimated Original Gravity (OG) | Estimated Final Gravity (FG) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Westmalle Tripel | 9.5% | 1.080 – 1.084 | 1.008 – 1.012 |
| Westmalle Dubbel | 7.0% | 1.063 – 1.065 | 1.008 – 1.012 |
| Westmalle Extra | 4.8% | 1.044 – 1.048 | 1.008 – 1.011 |
of course you have learned that not everything you read online is true - but you can ask “how did you get this info? / show me the primary documents you used.” and dig deeper.
i will probably be playing around with this for now, but i am making this thread as honestly - LLM info gathering is going to be a great update to guessed at info from the internet of ~2005 to 2025
