Well, 14 days in primary, 6 days in secondary at 80 degrees, and two weeks in 80 degrees bottle conditioning... just as I suspected, it's not right!! Tastes overwhelmingly fruity, wondering if these temperatures could have caused the esthers? I can't believe this is the correct flavor... opinions?

Me and my buddy are going to do a 10 gallon batch but with 2oz. of sweet orange peel. Then split it and try WL320 and Wyeast 1010. Should be interesting to see the difference.

I brewed this using Bell's yeast and racked it onto three 15 oz cans of Oregon Raspberry Puree in the serving keg. Left it under pressure at room temp for 4 days, then put it into the kegerator. Nice balance between sweet/tartness from the raspberry. Looks cloudy like a wheat beer. Only other change to the recipe was using 5 1/2 lbs of wheat malt as my LHBS didn't have any flaked wheat in stock. Thanks to the OP for a nice recipe!

Planning to brew this on Sunday, as per the original recipe. I'm not adding any fruit, it'll be up to the drinker to add a wedge of lemon or lime if desired. Thanks for the recipe!!
