Brewed this on 11/12/08, drinking now.
I had to make a variation as my lhbs didn't have the flaked wheat. Brewmaster there suggested some white wheat and some unmalted wheat as replacement. OG 1.053 FG 1.012
Marris Otter 4.5 lbs
white wheat 2.25
Unmalted wheat 2.25
flaked barley 2 0z
rice hulls 2 cups
East Kent Goldings 1 oz (60)
Whirfloc 1 tablet (10)
coriander .75 oz crushed and hydrated 5 minutes (5)
bitter orange peel .75 oz hydrated 5 mins (5)
sweet Orange Peel .25 oz hydrated 5 mins (5)
Belgian Witbeir 3944 Sep 08
It is wonderful. It might be a little too clear for a wit but I like it. Maybe it is the whirfloc or maybe the cold crashing.
Tasting notes: It is great with or w/out orange and almost has a hint of clove like a hoegarden.
Next time I will have to get the flaked wheat and compare.
I'll bet you would like to see a picture!
Thanks BM
