    Flaked wheat observations

    I am 2.5 weeks into fermentation, and my last gravity sample looked like a hefe. I mashed low (148F). Also using 1272, which has cleared up well for me in the past.

    Springfield, IL

    Check out Brewhaus if you are looking for a bar in Springfield. To my knowledge, I was born and raised there, there are currently no brewpubs. There may be soon, but not yet. Brewhaus has a load of taps, and a great whiskey selection.

    Black IPA/ Cascadian Dark

    I think Oakshire Brewery's O'Dark 30 is a very good CDIPA. Don't know how far out of Oregon you can get it though.
