What would be a quick recipe? Something that ferments quick, and clears quick, then conditions quick as well. Is there such a beer recipe that can go from fermenter to drinkable in 5 weeks or less?

BierMuncher said:I agree hefe's a fast. But if this beer is for an "event" and is going to be consumed by a wide audience...I'm afraid no amount of time will make the beer drinkable...especially if you're trying to cater to a BMC crowd.
A lot of people are put off by the banana/clove signature.
Still...until we know your brew setup...it's going to be hard to make suggestions.
There's a big difference between an American wheat beer like Boulevard Wheat and a true hefeweizen.maltMonkey said:I did an English Pale ale that was very drinkable in 3 weeks.
On another note, do "normal" beer drinkers really have a problem with hefes? I thought everyone loved wheat beers

X2 the Blonde I brew is killer at 24 days and would be even faster if you filter.TexLaw said:Try a blonde with California V. It clears more quickly that Chico yeast.
