Québécois Quadruple Wheat Wine Extract Kit

Québécois Quadruple Wheat Wine Extract Kit
O.G: 1092 / Ready: 8 weeks


The Québécois are proud, bold and fiercely loyal people that can't be understood after a few pints, and they sure can make damn good beer. This quadruple wheat wine is very much along the lines of a strong Belgian golden ale but with a wheat focus. The wheat adds a bready character and keeps the beer from being too dry and the addition of Grains of Paradise adds a spicy, peppery finish. This dangerously potent (approx. 9% abv) libation is a peace offering to our friends to the North: in all seriousness, sorry for stealing Shatner...
