3,15 Munich Malt LME
3.15 Bavarian Wheat LME
8 ounces pilsner DME
4 ounces Caraffa I (steeping)
6 ounces Belgian CaraMunich (steeping)
1.5 ounces Northern Brewer pellets for about 38 IBU (first wort hop with all the northern brewer hops before boil is even achieved by adding hops before the LME addition.)

It tastes like what I think I would like to drink in a big, green, pine forest like in the mountains above Vancouver, where I once spent one long summer roaming the hills.
