I've been inspired to make a strong "Wit style" beer. By strong I mean a minimum of 10%, possibly as high as 12%. I have not made a wit or used a wit yeast before and the problem I see is that the White Labs wit yeasts are for 8% or below. Is there another yeast that I can add to the wort that will go beyond 10% without over powering the wit flavors? Possibly WLP099 SUPER HIGH GRAVITY ALE YEAST or WLP090 SAN DIEGO SUPER YEAST?
If it helps my plans were to make a small batch around 3-4 gallons and bottle them to age for special occasions and such. I would be using extract. The only reasons I've mentioned White Labs is because that is what I typically use. I'm open to using any yeast.
Thanks
