LB-074 A Fool's Wit - Belgian Witbier (BIAB)
A light and drinkable beer with the soul of a saint and the wit of a fool.
A light and drinkable beer with the soul of a saint and the wit of a fool. It was another attempt at brewing in a bag, which we have been doing to supplement our precautions against the plague. It turned out to be within style, though some might have wished the ABV to be higher than 5.2%.
Comments on the style
The presence, character and degree of spicing and lactic sourness varies. Overly spiced and/or sour beers are not good examples of the style. Coriander of certain origins might give an inappropriate ham or celery character. The beer tends to be fragile and does not age well, so younger, fresher, properly handled examples are most desirable. Most examples seem to be approximately 5% ABV.
