Anyone ever try to Clone this American Wheat Ale? This year's batch is very goodah, and I am thinking that a Home Brewed version would be even better.

I've been thinking of brewing this up, so i've been searching old posts......One question, it seems to be a wheat beer, but on the links to AHB recipe's they don't use a wheat yeast......Any ideas why not????
I would like the answer to this question as well, I am getting ready to brew something similar to this and have the same concern.
