Dampfbier

grain:
- 15 pounds Pilsner malt
- 6 pounds Munich malt

hop:
- 2 ounces Hallertauer 45 minutes
- 1 ounces Hallertauer flame out

yeast:
- White Labs Hefeweizen IV

comments:
A Brew Your Own recipe cranked up for 10 gallons. Brewed for Summer sipping. Completely out of character for me ... low hops, low gravity ... but surprisingly decent. Serve cold ... like 32 degrees. There is no hop character so feature the malt.

gravity:
- first sparge @ 19 Brix
- final reading @ 13.5 Brix ... water added to drop to 12 Brix

notes:
Strong fermentation ended in about 3 days ... just like BYO said it would. I would add more hops next time ... aber sagen das nicht nah eine Deutche!
