my first belgian witbier

[BrooklynBrew]

Ok here it is. My first wheat beer and my first kegged beer. It tastes great. Only thing is i think it should have been a little lighter in color but doesnt seem to affect the flavor at all. What ya think?

ok cool thanks..i thought it should be a little lighter. this is my first batch in over a year and my first kegging experience but it seemed like it worked out good. I got an Irish Red ale in the primary and a cream ale in the mail.

Looks fine to me; it's on the dark side but still great, mine actually seem to turn out a little darker then yours did. What was the recipe?

Every week or so be sure to pull out the keg and invert it to keep the yeast in suspension.

+1! It makes a huge difference in flavor.

Bottle your wits and belgians. Keg the ones you want clear.

Looks ok to me. I did 2 Wits since September with one cooking up right now and another following it. I think I will have one primary dedicated to wheat beers from now

Are you brewing in Brooklyn?

<edit>

I opened 2nd to last bottle of my Superbowl Sunday Wit, below you will find pictures. First one is just with the beer, second is when I added a splash of OJ.
