Hey guys,
I was walking around today thinking about beer and what equipment I should use to build a MLT to start my partial mashing when a thought popped into my head.
What are the differences between a hefeweizen and a wit beer?
All I know (and correct me if I'm wrong) they are both wheat beers. Hefe is served with a lemon and wits with an orange. Hefe from Germany and Wits from Belgium? Also I'm guessing Wits can have spices like corriander or orange zest where a hefe probably wouldn't.
I guess I need to try them side by side.
Any thoughts?
