Notes

Red Wheat is Raw Wheat from Breiss. I also oven baked it at 250 F for 4 hours before being millled and it was not washed or germinated beforehand.

Strong head retention from the wheat, warmth from the alcohol and tasty malt in the aftertaste makes for an interesting IPA.

Hops taste of grapefruit/melon with moderate-strong bitterness. The flavor/bitterness is slightly in favor of bitterness.

The FG should be 1.02 or lower, not 1.025
