Looking for a good Dunkelweizen recipe

[Jwerner23]

I am looking to brew a Dunkelweizen. A beer I really like is Schlafly No. 15. I used to drink this all the time when I lived in the St. Louis area up until 4 years ago. I have noticed that they retired the beer a couple years ago. I would like to brew a beer like that one. It was a Dunkelweizen. If anyone has a good recipe for one or a clone for No. 15 please post it.

Thanks

That looks tasty. I may have to give that a go myself.

To the OP,

Have you tried emailing Schlafly or better yet (since you're in St. Louis) maybe talk to someone at the Bottleworx? Maybe someone there would be willing to help with a clone version of something very close to that. I have emailed them on some of the items they sell and was surprised how quick they replied to me.



My younger brother used to live in St. Louis. He moved to Florida recently and I still have a 12 pack sampler from Schlafly that he brought back. He used to bring me something from there every time he would come visit. I'm gonna miss that now that he no longer lives there. I love their beer!

I emailed them a few days ago but haven't heard back from them, I moved up to Northern Minnesota about 3 years ago so I can't go in and talk to them unfortunately. I have my parents bring me some Schlafly beers everytime they come up to visit, and I bring some back with me everytime I go home to visit. I hope they will give me some advice on this beer though. We will see.
