This is our Gruit Beer! Gruit(or sometimes grut) is an old fashioned pre-hops herb mixture used for bittering, preserving, and flavoring beer. It was "primarily a combination of 3 mildly to moderatly narcotic herbs: sweet gale(Myrica gale), also called bog myrtle, yarrow(achillea millefolium), and wild rosemary(Ledum palustre).

White Labs WLP320 American Hefeweizen Ale
White Labs WLP320 American Hefeweizen Ale
This yeast is used to produce the Oregon style American Hefeweizen. Unlike WLP300, this yeast produces a very slight amount of the banana and clove notes. It produces some sulfur, but is otherwise a clean fermenting yeast, which does not flocculate well,
Notes
This beer stimulating, mildly hallucinegenic(more of a silly body feeling than visual) , and highly intoxicating. Boil 7.5 grams Myrica gale, 7.5 grams Ledum palustre and 7.5 grams Yarrow in the wort for an hour and leave in primary fermenter. Other adjunct herbs used in gruit were juniper berries, ginger, caraway seed, aniseed, nutmeg, and cinnamon. It was really hard to find a source for the 2 herbs beside yarrow but I finnally came across wild weeds http://www.wildweeds.com/herbs/index.html#Top
