Notes

A simple low ABV wheat beer. The main things I wanted to have in this beer are:

  1. Lots of wheat malt, ideally from Mungoswells
  2. A yeast that I'm used to using regularly, Lallemand BRY-97 in this case
  3. Lots of orange peel added at the end of the boil. Might also add some lemon peel as well
  4. Rice hulls or oat husks to help with the sparge

    The other malts I am adding are partly being used to use them up. They should also help with increasing body and head retention. So this beer should have loads of both, since wheat is already good for that!
