Trying a recipe I found for a lemon coriander weiss, but was curious if other people have used different spices with lemon, with success. I want some options to play around with in the future!

Thanks!
 
I did a Thai spiced wheat beer with a combination of lemon grass, ginger, galagal root, coriander, and some Thai hot pepper. It smelled great and was pretty good a two to four weeks after bottling. The pepper faded pretty quickly and spice balance was not as good after a month. I know lemon grass is not the same as lemon but for the sake of throwing out ideas, there it is. I also made an IPA with a couple of ounces of Sorachi Ace hops that lend a lemony touch that turned out very well and might complement the coriander well.
