Notes

Suggested Mash Temperature:
A low mash temperature is recommended to create a light, dry easy drinking beer. Mash temperature of 147° - 149°F.
Fermentation Schedule:
Primary fermentation of two weeks at 66° - 74°F, and
a secondary fermentation for 1 to 2 weeks. You can add the tart cherry concentrate to the primary after fermentation is complete, or add to the secondary. You may notice some renewed fermentation. Wait one to two weeks and make sure fermentation is complete before bottling or kegging.
BREWER’S NOTES:
This is a pretty straightforward American wheat beer recipe. The base is part 2-row barley and American white wheat, with just a
little bit of aromatic malt for character, and a single hop addition for bittering.
This is a great beer to enjoy in the late summer and fall!
