Came out quite nice very slight Honey flavour and extremely clear.

Next batch will try way more smoked malt as this flavour is barely noticeable.

Will also try adding honey at the end of boil to see what effect this has.

Notes

Just finished first attempt at this recipie, tasted the wort before pitching the yeast, looked very foamy and tasted soapy, have I messed up here only time will tell.

Came out really nice, would be greatly improved by fresh yeast as this was brewed with the cake from a previous beer.
Needed to be lighter in body.
Clarity however was stunning considering not lagered and fermented at ale temp.

Smoke flavour non existent so much greater volume of smoked wheat in next batch.

Also slight honey flavour noted, a hit of actual honey at the end of boil might work well.
