This has never happened to me before. I made my first Wit and it is not only strange tasting, but also strange looking. I have made a lot of hefe's so I know what cloudy is....but this is more like milky. The flavor is very lemony. I was going to blame it on the yeast I chose (Wyeast 3463 Forbidden Fruit) but I can't imagine any beer being this color.
When I made it I thought that almost 50% of my grain bill being flaked wheat was odd, but it's my first Wit....so what do I know. I made it from a recipe I found on the net.
6lbs 2 row
4.5 lbs flaked wheat
1 lb flaked oats
1 oz hallertau at 60
3/4 oz corriander at 5
1 oz bitter orange peel at 5
Wyeast 3463
All I get in the flavor it lemon.
