As of mid-June 2014, this is still my favorite of the one-gallon batches that we have brewed.
But in mid-July 2014 after we tasted our one-gallon batch of Belgian Trippel, I liked the trippel better than the wit.
This Belgian Wit recipe, however, is still a future five-gallon batch candidate. We want more of this beer.
