From a Pinkus Mueller Munster Altbier clone. https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/974761/stau-haus-munster-alt-ii - Intended to be Munster Altbier. Biggest changes - using Great Western White Wheat instead of Unmalted Wheat. Use Sourvisiae yeast with K-97 for sour/funk instead of direct Lactic Acid additions.

Tasting Notes (2)

Opus123

Tasted on 1/1/2025 by Opus123

Notes:

I only have a few of these left, but this turned out very good. Slightly more sour than I expected, but great with a little woodruff syrup or some pineapple juice.

Tasted on 3/30/2024 by Opus123

Notes:

Moved to the secondary and added gelatin. The taste was pleasantly sour, very close to what I hoped for. Should be 6.5%ABV.
