Specialty grains: 8 ounces of Chocolate and 8 ounces of Munich.

Application Tip:

To upgrade the yeast to a liquid culture, purchase either the Wyeast 3068 Wehenstephen or 3638 Bavarian Wheat yeast separately. The 3068 provides a bright fruitiness and accents of clove and wheat while the 3638 accentuates banana, fruit and wheat. (Additional yeasts are sold separately.)
