Notes

I put 2 quarts of Muscat sour culture on the wort with the Belgian yeast. I am planning on adding oak cubes soaked in red wine after about 3-4 months and about 1 month before bottling/blending. It all depends on how this sours up. Full Krausen in 4 hours or so. Way cool.

My Sour Angels was really nice after about 5 1/2 months of age with this culture. That is a Berliner Weiss malt bill with Kolsch yeast and the Muscat culture.
