The name came from a couple friends saying I should name my beers after Lord of the Rings characters. Arwen seemed to fit so that's where the name came from, if you're wondering.
This one is currently fermenting for me. It's based off of one of Biermunchers recipe's in the General discussion forum with a couple of changes of my own. Thought it deserved a presence in the recipes section! If this shouldn't be posted please feel free to delete it.

From the hydro sample after a week I get mostly orange with a little lemon and some slight spice. I didn't add the black pepper or flour mixture that Biermuncher had in his post.
The yeast combo I got from the Allagash Curieux clone post. I have used it in two other brews so far and this combination seems to give off some good citrus without crazy fermentation temps. It also gives just a hint of black pepper like spice. At some point this will be more of a "house yeast" than the combination since one strain will end up taking over the other, going by other forums about yeast "growing," but since it's only gen 2 I think it's still good to go.
