(Wheat Beer)
Finally I have all the ingredients. I hope to have the wort in the fermenter tonight.
I am going to twist flavor in many ways. Basically its a wheat beer. To improve the wheat beer taste I am adding coriander and orange juice. By adding German Wheat Yeast I am trying to give it a sharp tart crispness, fruity flavor. With centennial hops I am hoping to improve the aroma and bitter taste. Finally to give it barrel taste I am adding roasted oak wood. I hope the all the flavors come together to get the perfect taste.
Ingredients:
- Whispering Wheat Weizenbier HME
- 3 TSP of Coriander
- 1/2 cup of OJ
- 1 TSP Bitter Orange Peel
- 3 TSP of Hops
- 1/2 cup of Oak chips
(First Tasting - 12/6/2010)
Wheat with coriander flavor is really promising. It has turned out a little more bitter than I had anticipated. Overall the taste is refreshing. At the moment alcohol content is low.

Alright, I guess its about time.

Ho! Ho! Ho!
I opened the first bottle yesterday and it turned out to be good. Add a slice of orange and the taste improved few times. The barrel flavor hasn't come out as expected but the orange and coriander brings out the taste in the wheat malt.

The taste was very refreshing! The coriander and orange combination made it sizzling. It was slightly bitter, and definitely had a stronger alcohol content.
ReplyDeletedefinitely a huge improvement over previous brew. The carbonation was perfect. Hops are always good :). Combination with orange really rocked! Looking forward to the next experiment.
