0006 - Bavarian Weissbier

Brewed up a Mr. Beer recipe yesterday, the Bavarian Weissbier.  Should be a good summer beer, perhaps with a slice of orange tossed in.

Recipe Notes:
Actually used Mr. Beer BrewMax LME SoftPack - Golden but this does not exist in the Qbrew database.

Batch Notes:

Looks like another yeast party going on.  I'm liking this style of airlock since I cracked one of the S styled ones trying to install it.  Guess I don't know my own strength.  The design of this one prevents any back flow of water into the brew, and costing only $1.19 at the local home brew store, I see more of these in my future.

Update: 2013/04/20
Bottled this up today.  Got 21 bottles out of it.  The sample tasted a bit malty and a touch sweet.  Should be a very good beer once it conditions and carbonates.  Looking forward to this one.
