Hi all,

I was making the jump from kits to extract back in July, but made a mistake on my online order, and ordered crushed grains instead of extract (I really didn't know what I was ordering, obviously) So, I had to take a crash course in AG, and brew a beer with what I had. AG was so enjoyable, that I think I will skip extract all together! The beer has turned out quite well, considering I just threw ingredients that I had together, but I have no idea what it would be classified as.

So, if you can take a look at the following ingredients list, perhaps you can tell me what I am currently drinking :)

4.5 lbs Light Wheat Malt
4.5 lbs Dark Wheat Malt
2.25 lbs Crystal Malt 30L
1oz Hallertauer (60min)
.5 oz Hallertauer (30 min)
.5 oz Hallertauer (5 min)

Is this perhaps a weizenbock?
 
Looks like it's right on the edge between a dunkelweizen and a weizenbock. Just a little bit bitter and strong for the dunkelweizen, and a bit mild for a weizenbock. That's all semantics if it tastes good!
