Notes

Under development yet...
Trying to get a fresh & mild hoppy wheat beer with honey-lemon aromas, in other words, citrus with a touch of sweetness (honey).
Remember those aromas? when we enjoyed as kids flavors of refreshing honey-lemon beverages, used also as home palliatives for the flu.
Any suggestions? feel free
