General Info

The beer turned out to have a bit of an acidic bite. Pitched some Brett to sour it up a bit to make a sort of Flanders Reddish type of beer - funkified.

Bottled 8/30/12. Wonderful funk with some slight sourness; finished sweet upon tasting at bottling. Bottled in 750ml corked and 19mm capped bottles. Primed with 1 cup corn sugar.
