Bottling Notes, Hefeweizen (Saturday 07mar2009)

Bottled today, after 13 days in primary.  Used ~ 1 1/8 cups of corn sugar aiming for ~ 3 volumes of CO2.  

Ended up with forty three 11.2-12 oz. bottles and seven 16-16.9 oz. bottles.

Finals measurements on this beer were:

OG ~ 1.050

FG ~ 1.012

% ABV ~ 4.9%

Cals/12 oz. ~ 164

The beer smelled good, with that typical hefeweizen clovey smell.  It had a nice mildly sweet flavor to it and I'm thinking it will be quite tasty in a week or so.
