This dark wheat beer came out great. My wife likes wheat beer and I made this one for her sake, but it's become one of my favorites that I've brewed so far. This recipe is pretty much a straight up implementation of a recipe from my local brew shop, Hoggetowne Ale Works, but with slight deviations due to availability.
Ingredients:
- 2 cans Briess wheat malt extrace (60% wheat)
- 1 lb Caramel Wheat
- 3/4 lb CaraMunich
- 1/2lb 6-row Barley
- 5oz White Wheat
- 3/4oz Hersbrucker Hallertauer hops @ 60 min
- 1/2oz Hersbrucker Hallertauer hope @ 15 min
- Safbrew WB-06 dry wheat beer yeast
- 3/4 cup dextrose for priming
I used my standard partial-mash brewing process. This one staying in the fermenter for 10 days and then into bottles. After a couple days it was ready to drink and quite good.
I got an awful headache while brewing this batch, so I rushed the end and didn't get an OG. The FG, however, was probably lower than necessary @ 1.01
I'll likely brew something similar to this again.
