Despite being an IPA fan, the beer from Ghostfish that impressed me most was their Belgian White. They nailed the style while making it completely indecipherable from traditional beer. And with it being summer, I find myself craving it. Here's my planned attempt at replication.
9 lbs Pale Millet Malt
1 lbs Biscuit Rice Malt
2 lbs Buckwheat Malt
1 oz Saaz Hops (60 min)
1 oz Coriander (flameout)
1 oz Sweet Orange Peel (flameout)
Safbrew WB-06
1.049 OG @ 75% efficiency
I'm not quite sure about these grain ratios. I see that traditional Belgian Wits are about 50% pilsner and 50% wheat. I have two more lbs of biscuit rice I could add while lowering the pale millet, but I worry about it adding too much color. Also, should I throw in some Bob's GF rolled oats, or will the buckwheat suffice?
