Notes

This came out lovely :)

After the boil the starting gravity was 1.053, and I only got about 20 litres so my efficiency was a little off. Finishing gravity was roughly on target.

The beer cleared way, way more than I expected given the wheat malt and oats, and no finings used. It was cold crashed at around 3C for 5 days, which probably helped clearing.

There was a definite hoppy hit, as the style demands, with a noticeable melon flavour lurking underneath the citrus. The whole keg went in one afternoon at a party. Definite success, will brew again.
