White Labs WLP380 Hefeweizen IV Ale
White Labs WLP380 Hefeweizen IV Ale
Large clove and phenolic aroma and flavor, with minimal banana. Refreshing citrus and apricot notes. Crisp, drinkable hefeweizen. Less flocculent than WLP300, and sulfur production is higher.
Notes
Yeast actually WLP351, a new strain avail in July/Aug '06. "Platinum series", Bavarian Weizen Ale The goal is something similar to Magic Hat's Circus Boy Hefeweisen, which is 1.055OG with Amarillo and Magnum hops. We had a terrible mash efficiency, we were aiming for 1.055 and hit 1.050. Four pounds of grain was too much for a simple grain steep I think, should have busted out the mash tun and done it right. Tasting notes: Excellent! A nice zing to it, just as we were gunning for. Tastes a little overbearing for the style perhaps, but I'm not a style freak.

Absolutely fantastic

This was possibly my favorite beer we've brewed, and all the friends who have tried it have loved it, brewers and non-brewers alike. It had that fantastic "zing" to it that Hefewiesens are supposed to have, first time I've gotten exactly what I wanted from a wheat beer. I'm very sad that it's all gone. :-( If I can find the specialty yeast again, this will be getting brewed at least once more. I did reserve some of the trub in a yeast vial, but I suspect it's gone very off by now.
