Notes

Smell of zesty orange peel. Fresh tasting with good body and notes of freshly crushed coriander seeds. Head is aggressive on the pour due to high carbonation, but settles comfortably after a few minutes.
Rated first place by numerous brewery guests between brews 1-7. Recommended for submission into homebrew contest, but too precious to give up. All gone now!

>malt extract can be light or extra light
>yeast should be Belgian Wit (wheat) beer type
>use light honey

Directions for 5gal batch:
O.G.: 1.056-1.060
F.G.: 1.008-1.010
Bitterness: 18BU
Colour: 4SRM (8 EBC)
Alcohol: 6.3% by volume

Add malt extract, honey, and boiling hops to 7.5L water and boil for 60 mins. Add the flavor hops, ground coriander and orange peel for the final 5 minutes. Add the aroma hops for the final 1-2 minutes of boiling. Strain, sparge, and transfer immediately to 7.5L of cold water in the fermenter. Top off with additional water to make 19L. Aaerate the wort very well. Pitch the yeast when the temperature of the wort is about 21C. Ferment at about 21C for about 1 week or when fermentatino shows signs of calming and stopping.
Prime with sugar and bottle or keg when fermentation is complete. For added attraction add one whole coriander seed to each bottle when bottling (microwave them if worried).
