I've been enjoying my alternative base malt experiments so I thought another one was in order. A thread a while back had me thinking about vienna malt as a base for my next hefeweizen so I thought about the recipe and figured a direct substitution for pilsener was the way to go. Any comments are welcome, I probably won't be brewing this until Sunday or Monday (long weekend! ) given that I haven't gotten the starter going yet.
