Default Dunkelwiezen bottled!

WOW!! This stuff tastes EXCELLENT right out of the primary!! I pulled the FG on it, tasted, then decided it would be an good idea to siphoned off a full glass to wet my tounge with while bottling

I only primaried it to leave it cloudier as per tradition. The FG was a tad bit high at 1.020 even though the stuff sat in the primary for 2 weeks. Could be the type of extract used I suppose, or lack of secondary. Its a kit from thegrape.net including 4lbs alxeanders wheat LME, and another 3lbs pale muntons DME. I used white labs WLP300 Hefeweizen Ale yeast.... saved some slurry for another batch! This stuff rooooocks!

Time for more oatmeal stout me thinks!

Hmm...you bottled this at 1.020? I'd be very concerned about that.

i just brewed a dunkelwiezen this week....well more of a weizenbock. i used some chocolate malt and some amber dme. just out of curiosity, do you think yours would be better or worse off with those ingredients (i am saving my yeast and doing another next week hopefully). just seeing what you think.
