=Description=
Berliner Weisse is a top-fermented, bottle conditioned wheat beer made with both traditional warm-fermenting yeasts and lactobacillus culture. They have a rapidly vanishing head and a clear, pale golden straw-coloured appearance. The taste is refreshing, tart, sour and acidic, with a lemony-citric fruit sharpness and almost no hop bitterness.
Typical average alcohol by volume (abv) range: 2.0-5.0%
=General Best Practices=
* Create a 1 liter Lacto starter for each 5 gallons at least 2 days in advance of brew day.
* Pitch [[Brettanomyces]] after cooling down after [[Lactobacillus]] fermentation phase
