Brewer's Notes
Kits are actually Brewferm Christmas, Abbey and Tarwebier (wheat).
All kits are 2years out of date cans bought for $6 each. At full price ($35ish each) I'd consider this a waste of money.
Melanoidin is actually Special B.
Jaggery Sugar is 500g each of asian palm & coconut sugar.
Yeast is a blend of kit, trappist & Hoegaarden Grand Cru culture.
Batch was split in two - half bottled at FG=1034 and the other half transferred onto a Farmhouse yeast which dropped to FG=1018
