Notes

Biere de Brut is a pleasant, extra-dry, ultra-effervescent, light, delicate beer with gentle honey maltiness. Hops aromas and flavors are diverse with forward notes of passion fruit, grapefruit, pineapple, gooseberry, lemongrass, blackberries, blackcurrant, peach, pear, and white wine.

After the boil whirlpool and stand for 10 minutes.

Final gravity will be lower, and alcohol content will be higher as calculations don't account for Alpha-Amylase additive.
