Big thanks to Stu who gave me some invaluable advise on how to condition this Ale.

So how did you condition the ale?

I sure am a lucky man! I had it in the fermenter for 2 weeks in total, the fermentation temperature determined how much CO2 would be in the beer. After the "clean up" I kegged it, burped it, put 1bar in there (to let the tap do its work) then serve it at 15 degrees. So... no cold conditioning, no racking, no priming... just basically drinking it straight out of the fermenter!
