I've been thinking about brewing this one for a while now and finally got around to it! Mine is slightly different. Slightly higher gravity, more spices, more hops and zest. This should be hitting its peak around the holidays so I kind of took it in that direction. Tangerines are not available this time of the year, so I went with clementine zest. If its lacking citrus character, I plan on adding some tangerine zest extracted with vodka at bottling time. Anyway, here is what I did!
For 5.5 Gallons, Partial Mash Recipe:
3 lbs Wheat DME
3 lbs Amber DME
1 lb American 6-row
1 lb Caramunich III
1 lb Flaked Wheat
1 lb Flaked Oats
.5 lb Special B
.5 lb Midnight Wheat
Hops, Spices, Aromatics:
60M .5 oz Willamette
10M 1 oz Willamette + Spices (see below)
5M .5 oz UK EKG (leaf)
0M .5 oz Willamette, .5 oz UK EKG, 1/8 cup clementine zest
Spices:
.25 oz dried orange blossoms
1 tblsp star anise (lightly crushed)
1 tblsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cardamom
Yeast: Wyeast Belgian Wit 3944; pitched at 63F
OG: 1.072
Smelled totally amazing on the stove. Stoked to see how this comes out!!!
