Notes

An excellent wheat beer. The app required a German Weissbier name- I would say this is not a Weissbier-.

Named BB's wheat to note my friend's initials that requested this beer. We shared an 18 month army deployment in Iraq, 2003. We held a 20 year reunion and Ben asked for a wheat homebrew! Here it is, I hope you enjoy also! Leave a review!
