Have been brewing some really simple session beers recently and I just wanted to step out on a limb and try something that could either crash and burn, or be pretty good. I put together a really big slightly spiced wheat beer. For a five gallon batch my ingredients were - 6.3 lbs of wheat extract, 1 lb of brewers best golden light dry extract, lb honey (30 min. addition), and a half gallon of pineapple orange juice pre pitch. Also 2 oz. of German Hersbrucker (60 min) and .75 oz. of Kent Goldings (5 min.). For spices i added one stick of cinnamon, one oz. correander and zest from one lemmon and 2 orange peals. Used Wyeast Forbidden Fruit yeast. She is curently fermenting VIOLENTLY:rockin:. It smells awesome, but I rolled the dice here and don't really know what I am in for haha. Just having fun and rolling with it, what do you guys think?
