In celebration of my engagement with SWMBO :rockin:, I've formulated the recipe below. This is sort of a blend of what we both like - I like high ABV RIS/DIPA/Barleywine-type beers, she enjoys Hefes with Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier being her goto currently.
I've asked her for any twists she would like - looking at something like .5oz of sweet orange peel or something.
HELP! Going to the LHBS tomorrow and brewing Saturday!
