I bought two ounces of Lemon Drop hops and had three ounces of Hallertau Blanc left over and was trying to think of a recipe. My first thought was a hefeweizen, but my fermentation chamber is full for a while, duo I couldn't ferment cold. Then it hit me, I'm already changing up the style, why not go all out. So I'm going too ferment it using 3724.
Let me know what your thoughts are.
