Brew Batch #4

Well Dunkelweizen hit the bottles tonight and we got a nice batch of 48 12oz brown longnecks with red caps and 3 "mutty" bottles. Looks and smells like it is going to be a good batch especially since this is the batch that I had to recover the rubber grommet from the bottom of. Should be ready to try in about 2 weeks. I let the batch really ferment well and am going to let it condition for at least 2 weeks before I try it just so I give it enough time to really get nice (or not). FG 1.007+0.001 @74F to give it 5.6%alc. cont. Going to try to come up with a label that incorporates "DunkelVee" in it, if it turns out okay.
