Whisky Wife Wheat II
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.
