White Labs WLP410 Belgian Wit II Ale
White Labs WLP410 Belgian Wit II Ale
Less phenolic than WLP400, and more spicy. Will leave a bit more sweetness, and flocculation is higher than WLP400. Use to produce Belgian Wit, Spiced Ales, Wheat Ales, and Specialty Beers.
Notes
1/2 tsp white pepper. Brewed with WLP410 because my homebrewshop didn't have WLP410.

This beer was good, however since I chose not to spice this beer and I didn't have the platinum series wit yeast at time of brewing it was not as spicy as it will be when I brew it in a couple of weeks.
