Taste Notes

One of the best beers I've made to date, IMHO. Pale yellow/white, with wheat opacity; thin, persistent, white foam; esters from the wheat and belgian yeast, but with pronounced citrus aroma and taste from the citra hops. Definitely one I'll brew again. Dry hopped with 1 ounce of citra in keg. First tastings strongly grapefruit, but fades over time. Try skipping dry hop addition. 3/2014: Advice from Ben Harris, Bay De Noc Brewers: cut down on bittering hops (substitute CTZ for Summit) to let orange & corriander flavors come thru. Other members advice: needs better body/mouthfeel.

Notes

Loosely based on Deschutes Brewing Chainbreaker White IPA. Advice from Mike Sadam, Hereford & Hops brewmaster: use 3% acidulated malt in place of lactic acid. He also uses dry yeast in lieu of liquid.
