Jerry's Mr White
The base of this brew is a Brewferm Mr White brew kit for “witbier” a top-fermented barley/wheat beer brewed mainly in Belgium and the Netherlands. It is a kit for 20 liters, and was split into two ~9.5 liter wort batches in the fermenter.
We measured around 10 brix of the 20 liters which is 5.2% ABV. The kit stated it was around 5.5% ABV. So the brew was not bad. Also the bottle prime sugar for carbonation adds a little alcohol to the end product.
The bottle ID is 277.
