Notes

Target OG (before honey) = 1.078
Pre-boil OG = around 1.061

"Buckwheat Honey" in fermentables is actually New Zealand Manuka honey. Content yet to be determined.
0.25 lb (4 oz) would add 1.6 points to OG.
Add at high krausen.

Add NZ sauvignon blanc wine into bottling bucket when primary is fully completed. Pull sample to determine ratio of wine to beer beforehand.
