Ingredients

  • 3 lb Dry wheat extract
  • 2 lb Wheat malt
  • 1 lb Barley malt
  • 1 lb Dry malt extract
  • 2 1/2 ounce Mt. Hood hops Wyeast Wheat beer yeast

Directions

  1. Make a yeast starter two days beforehand. Mash the three pounds of malt a la Miller. Boil for one hour, adding 1-1/2 ounces hops at the start, 1/2 oz at 30 min, and 1/2 oz at 5 min. Cold and pitch yeast.
  2. Ferment. Bottle. I primed half the batch (5 gal) with 1/3 c. corn sugar and the other half with 1/2 c. clover honey. After two weeks, the beer was great. The beer primed with honey, however, was way too carbonated.
  3. All you can taste is bubbles. In direct taste tests, this beer has more body than WheatHook, and is slightly sweeter. Compared to EKU, the beer is similar, but EKU Wiezen is slightly sweeter.
  4. Original Gravity: 1.057 FinalGravity: 10.12
