Summer of Wheat

[Bonsai & Brew 6,800]

With just a handful of us left on the forum, I thought it might be fun to come up with some wheat-based recipes for summer enjoyment.  Who's with me?🍻

Not a fan of heavily wheated beers for some reason, best I can do is a Wit! However, I think I make a pretty decent one.

I agree -- your Witbier is excellent!  You could try brewing a Berliner Weisse, Muenster Alt, or Hazy (Wheat) IPA and send me some of those too!

Hmmm that Muenster Alt is intriguing.

Update:  Melon Wheat.  If I didn't tell you first that there is a slight hint of melon aroma, you probably would not notice it. Pretty tasty though...
