WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

A Witbeir kit from Brewers Best with the hops put in backwards. At secondary I put it onto fresh picked and frozen blueberries.

Bluish/red color and some tartness from the blueberries.

Won 3rd place in the Spooky Brew Review sponsored by the Chicago Beer Society.
