Notes

This recipe is not "in style" because of the high IBUs. It is more of a wheat pale ale.

I tasted the sample I pulled for testing the gravity when transferring to secondary. Tasted a nice combination of sweetness and hops flavor. This is going to be a great summer seasonal.

I am brewing the same recipe as well with the addition of peaches and apricots in the secondary for a couple of weeks.

I will update the notes upon tasting.
