I doubled the recipe for 10 imperial gallons instead of the five above.
I was a little short on Munich so I subbed with 600g more of lager malt.

We used ECY23 Oud Bruin mix for this.

I'm considering what to do with my cut when it comes out of the barrel, am thinking fruit, but still to be decided.

This is being transferred to the barrel sometime in the next two weeks along with all of the others.

That'll be 450 litres of sour beers that we have brewing, presently making us the biggest sour brewers in the country :)
