The beer has been bottled. It seems to have finished fermentation as I hadn’t seen any air escaping from the airlock in 2 days. But from what I gathered, wheat tends to ferment pretty quickly. The alcohol content might be a little low though.

Original Gravity – 1.052
Final Gravity – 1.018

Gives it about a 4.6%. This may go up a bit though while finishing in the bottle. But the taste test seemed to be a good indication that the product is coming along with out any other hitches. Had a nice sweet, banana-like aroma and a hint of citrus.

It filled 46 bottles (plus one plastic soda bottle as a carbonation indicator). So now to just let it sit there for 2 weeks or so.

Any suggestions on what I might try next?
