Default Indy Amarillo Citra

Hi. New around here. Have heard about the greatness of Citra and decided to incorporate it into a wheat. Went a little something like this for a 5gal batch that is now bubbling like crazy. Brewed Friday 1/4.

6# 2 row
4# American Wheat
.5# Caravienne

152° for 70min mash.

.75oz Amarillo - 60min

.75oz Amarillo - 30min

.5oz Amarillo - 15mins
.5oz Citra - 15 mins

.5oz Amarillo - 5mins
.5oz Citra - 5mins

.5oz Amarillo- 0mins
.5oz Citra - 0mins

.25oz Amarillo - Dry 7 days
.25oz Citra - Dry 7 day

Smells amazing in the fermenter and obviously haven't dry hopped yet. It's like having a citrus air freshener in my room. One that I will drink.

Forgot. Used some Nottingham dry here. I know, maybe not the greatest, but it fit the budget and hasnt failed me yet. From the looks of the bubbling...it's alive! Started out at 1.049ish.

One week since the brew, and today's reading was 1.007, so thinking fermentation is all but done. Sample tasted great. Dry hopped and sealed the fermenter up for another week. Looking forward to getting it bottled up.

Ok. This thread has been immensely popular, so I will continue. Bottled today. 2 cases even. Tons of trub took probably a gallon from me. What can you do? Sampled a bit and cannot wait to taste it fully carbed and cold. Reminds me of Gumballhead, with some subtle differences.

Looks like a winner recipe man! Let us know how it tastes after it is carbed/cold. And post a glorious picture of course! If you like it, I may be brewing something similar soon.

I've brewed pretty much that exact beer last spring: http://www.bertusbrewery.com/2012/06/hoppy-summer-wheat.html

Turned out great. I used more hops though.

Thanks all. Will definitely post up some pics and a final review. Next time I will probably go with a couple more ounces of hops. Really liked the way the citra and amarillo seemed to work together.
