Brewer's Notes
15 min 52 deg protein rest and mash at 65 deg. Fermented at around 19 deg with 3068. This beer is wonderful. The dark wheat is like munich wheat and adds a great malty finnish to the beer. Aroma is of smooth chocolate and malty wheat. Yeast character is subtle but clove and a touch of bubblegum stand out...... but thats my fermentation, not the recipe. I always used pale wheat and munich malt but this is so much better.
