I have a friend flying in to visit in a couple months and his favorite store bought beer is a Cherry Wheat, so I thought I'd try concocting an all grain recipe and brew one to be ready for him when he gets here. Says he doesn't want it too hoppy.
Please rate this recipe and I look forward to any feedback. BeerSmith shows green across the board for the American Wheat style, so I'm hopeful I'm close.
6# - Canada Malting 2-row
4# - White Wheat Malt
Some Rice Hulls in the mash
0.50 oz - Centennial @ 60
0.50 oz - Centennial @ 5
0.50 oz - Cascade @ flameout
WLP320 - American Hefeweizen Ale
2oz - Cherry Extract @ bottling / kegging
OG = 1.057
IBU = 22.4
Color = 3.9 SRM
ABV = 5.7%
Should I put some Carapils or something in for head retention?
