Whisky Wife Wheat II
Brewed: 05/16/2010 Bottled: 06/01/2010
 Well, my hot brewing model liked Whisky Wife
Wheat, but I really think that hefes are not really a style of
beer
that interests her as much as Belgium Wit beers. She likes her
Shock Top and Blue Moons, and my Whisky Wife Wheat should really be
more
along those lines.... lighter with less of that hefe clove / banana
taste and more citrusy orange taste.
At the same time, one of my intentions in 2010 is to start moving
away from Mr. Beer ingredients. One thing I am doing (since I
still have Mr. Beer ingredients) is making WWW both with Mr. Beer and
with a completely non-Mr. Beer formulation. We'll see which one
the beer model prefers.
