Coastal Wheat Ale Beer Kit - Extract

Description

Your Coastal Wheat Ale delivers a refreshing wheat ale with citrus and floral notes. The Pale Dry Malt Extract and Wheat Dry Malt Extract give your beer a light creamy body and smooth wheat character that forms the base. Hallertau hops boiled for 60 minutes add earthy bitterness to balance the malt, Cascade hops at 15 minutes bring floral and citrus aromas, and Citra hops at 5 minutes contribute tropical fruit notes. Safbrew WB-06 yeast ferments the wort into a crisp effervescent ale that lets the wheat and hop flavors stand out.

Your Coastal Wheat Ale kit never sits on a shelf. Your ingredients are packed fresh and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about giving you the freshest ingredients to make your best beer.
