2nd baby beer ideas

Ok, I'm thinking of doing a wheat wine. Couldn't find much specific about what rohan drank or grew for crops. Maybe 50-60% wheat, some vienna, little bit of crystal something or other.
Not sure about the hops. English varieties seem to be more "authentic" to what they'd have access to, but was also reading that a little bit of citrus from American hops would go well with the grain bill. Looking at around 10% abv and it'll age a while, so need something that will stand up to all that

Finally getting around to purchasing ingredients and trying to fit the brew in.
Here's what I have so far, still have to mess with water and I'm not tied to any ingredient in particular, so definitely open to some thoughts

My thought is: That recipe looks perfect as it is!

Thanks! Just like my son's barleywine, I'll probably tweak this a little bit year to year once I can taste it, but I think this is the ball park that I'm going for

That one sounds super interesting. I don't know if I'd want to do a whole batch with it (the coconut would be out of place here), without trying it out in a pale ale or something first. But it's definitely going on my list to try

Brew a double IPA and call it
