• Posted in thread: Help with yeast selection alternative on 06-06-2010 at 03:27 PM
  I am currently using a selection of Wyeast for a dark wheat beer that is of German or Belgian
  origin. It lends itself to medium phenolic and banana/clove like flavors and aromas. However, I
  have come ...

  I love beer. Love my ales especially. English, American, Scottish, Irish, hell even Welch, you
  name it. If it's an an ale, I'll drink it. And lately I noticed, as any beer lover/brewer
  would, the beau...

  Great. I can't believe the idea of a wheat didn't register in my brain. For some reason I kept
  picturing a lager, but a wheat ale works just as well. The next step is finding a good recipe.

  Thank you! Yeah as far as I can tell from tasting during fermentation, the beer is infact very

  thanks guys. I guess I just wigged out. I tasted the beer though. It's an IPA. Somewhere near
