White Labs WLP051 California Ale V
White Labs WLP051 California Ale V
From Northern California. This strain is more fruity than WLP001, and slightly more flocculant. Attenuation is lower, resulting in a fuller bodied beer than with WLP001.
Notes
Mashed 1lb. Caravienne malts in 1 gal. water 20 mins. 7/30/03 - OG actually wound up 1.062 and TG came in about 1.009. Somehow I had pretty high gravity and very complete fermentation. Came out with a bit of a Strong Ale I think. We'll see how the head looks after kegging.

Funny I forgot all about this recipe. For the past 3 years I've been brewing this recipe alot. Each time I modified the hops slightly or raised/lowered the wheat content to fit the occasion. Most everybody that tries it, loves it and wants the recipe. Enjoy if you brew it.
