Product Overview
SoCo Berliner Weisse (Advanced Brewing) - All Grain
Our berliner weisse is a pale and low alcoholic German wheat beer with a clean lactic sourness derived from the addition of lactobacillus during fermentation.
This recipe goes beyond basic brewing techniques and requires a longer fermentation period. Be cautious when using lactobacillus with the same equipment that is used to make other styles of beer. You may inadvertently sour the other beers. If you would like to brew using easier methods, then consider our Berliner Weisse Easy Brewing All Grain Recipe.

* We strongly recommend adding an ice pack when ordering liquid yeast. Transit times can vary and liquid yeast works best when it remains cold until the day you brew.
