Kind of patched this together from a few recipes on the forums, wanted some comments as I am new to wheat beers. What are your thoughts on this dark, chocolaty beer? My wife and I like cacao nibs, so I thought they'd be fun to make a beer with.
4lb Alexander's Wheat LME
2lb Briess Pilsen Light DME
3/4lb Chocolate Wheat Malt
1/2lb Briess Blackprinz (have it lying around, ups the color)
1/2lb Caramel 40L
.25oz Cascade @ 60min (I added this because I like a little bitter and I was afraid the recipe was too malty)
1oz Tettnang @ 60min
1oz Saaz @ 5min
4oz Cocoa Powder @ 15min
4Tbsp Cacao Nibs in Fermenter for 2 weeks
Wyeast 1318 London Ale III
Anyway, let me know if you've tried anything like this or see any glaring mistakes, thanks.
