+===== Result =====
+A pleasant light blonde.  The citrusy aftertaste was almost lost.  Carbonation failed, because I think my yeast was too dead by the time I started it, so it's flat as a board.
+Edit:  No.  It was the seals.  I have since updated the seals, and hopefully, those bottles should now do well.
+Edit:  And now I have bottle bombs. The glass is insufficiently thick. Fifty bucks down the tubes.
