Notes

I had this sitting in my keg for 15 days just to meld the flavors together, I also used gelatin right when I kegged it and now after 15 days the beer is very good, you can defiantly taste the wheat flavor and the over all body is perfect with a citrus finish, the final gravity is low but the carapils makes the beer a little thicker and just the right texture, I can defiantly say this is a winner
