Ingredients (Extract5 gal)

  • 1 lbs Premier Wheat Liquid

    Premier Wheat Liquid

    A true brewer's wheat offering a golden appearance with a mild clove aroma and creamy head.

  • 5 lbs Unhopped Wheat; Coopers

    Unhopped Wheat; Coopers

  • 0.7 oz Cascade - 5.5 AA% pellets; boiled 60 min

    Cascade

    Spicy with citrus notes. Slightly grapefruity.

  • 0.50 oz Sterling - 7.5 AA% pellets; boiled 15 min

    Sterling

    Perceived to be similar to a Saaz and Mt. Hood combination. Finding favor as a Saaz replacement.

  • 0.50 oz Fuggle - 4.8 AA% pellets; boiled 1 min

    Fuggle

    Mild. Mainly used for finishing and dry hopping especially pale ales, porters, and stouts. Aroma is mild and pleasant, spicy, and soft.

  • 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

After primary Fermentation add 2 Golden Pineapples that have been peeled and cut into small pieces leave in for secondary fermentation at least one week, remove before bottling. If successful you will have a slight hint of pineapple flavor with a full bouquet of pineapple after pouring.
