Target Water Profile
Hainaut - Wallonia (farmhouse ales)

Hard water is common in Wallonia so if you have soft water add gypsum to create a water profile similar to the original locality of this style. Hard water will accentuate the dry finish and the bitterness of the beer. Probably Burton on Trent water profile will suit this style. But do not get too hung up about water chemistry!
