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

Good Wit! Direct to keg (tap-a-draft system), good light/wheat color, hints of spice, some banana. Very light alcohol. Concerned with the Yeast choice, seems to impart a slight tart/sourness.
