I'd recommend splurging on some Hefe yeast if you want to brew this recipe. A regular ale yeast like Notty might dry the beer out too much and it won't contribute the same esters or cloudiness to the final product. I used Wyeast 3068 when brewing this beer and it was right on; everybody liked it.
I noticed you go to school in NB, so I'm guessing that blood oranges aren't available there yet... Clementines are a really good substitute, check out my take on this recipe http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f37/clementine-hefeweizen-114435/
btw, which school do you go to? I'm 3rd year at Dal.

Truthfully, I would have preferred to go away to school rather than stay in Halifax... too many greasy bars and not enough house parties! But yeah, if you come to Halifax for any reason PM me and we can meet up to exchange/drink some homebrew. Let us know how the Hefe goes!
