Notes:
-This is designed to be a very light, dry, hoppy IPA.
-Great tangerine, citrus, slightly apricot flavor and aroma
-The Summit and Amarillo hops go really well together
-I like to keg, crash, then dry hop at room temp for 10-14 days. Crash it again, once the hop sludge settles, it is ready to serve.
-The Summit hops can give some very strong aromas/flavors that need some time to mellow, if you have the time, give it a shot with some Summit dry hop too.

I will post some pictures soon.

Looks tasty, but I have to ask. Why the wheat? I like summit enough I have 1.25 lb in the freezer. Where did you get the leaf summit? All I could find was pellet.

Not sure about the OP, but I routinely add 1/2 lb of wheat to APAs and IPAs for head retention.

I like to throw a little wheat into many of my beers, aids in head retention. (3% is not much, but I usually add 8oz for a 5 gallon batch.)

I actually got the leaf hops from trading with someone here on HBT. Not sure where he got them.

I got the Summit from you, right? Do you have source.
