Karger Weizenbock
Weizenbock • All Grain • 5.5 gal
Arlin's recipe called for 6.5 lb Wheat and 3.5 lb 2-row. At 65% efficiency, Beertools calculated the OG at 1052. The original hop bill called for 1 oz of Tettnang, which Beertools calculated as too bitter, so I bumped the malt and cut the hops to hit guidelines.

I have brewed this beer, and it won first prize on a local homebrewers competition, in Weizenbock category. It has a very interesting taste.
