Thanks everyone.

I'll be posting the recipe later tonite. This win qualifies me for a possible entry in the GABF Pro-AM, so I'm pretty jacked.

Essentially this was a 60/40 wheat bill with Elderflowers, Grains of Paradise and Pear Extract with French Ale Yeast and a 120 minute caramelization boil.

There's no 2 ways about it, this is a frou frou beer.
It's supposed to be.

I can tell you that it's extremely aromatic and flavorful, but not sweet despite the ingredient list.
It was brewed based on notes taken from an AB pilot brewery and also an answer to Ron Kloth's (of Papago brewing) version which scored a 41 in the GAzHC.

I'm grateful to Ron for driving my entry up to Las Vegas to get it qualified for Pro-AM contention.

A version of this beer, hopefully mine, has a strong possibility of being on tap at Papago.
