{{Notes}}
Based on boiling {{CalculateBoilVolumeDisplay}} gallonsliters at {{CalculatePreBoilGravityDisplay}} for {{CalculateBoilTimeDisplay}} minutes, this will decrease your wort by {{CalculateBoilLoss}} gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to {{CalculateFinalGravityFromPreBoilGravity}}.
You were planning on an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}} so you are right on track. Nice job!

Blackberry puree - pours 1.5 fingers of dense foam and dark orange, almost purple color. Aroma is candy sweetness with a pretzel-like character, then there is some peach in there too. Flavor is very strong peach with chocolate on the back end. Body is medium density and then pretty soft with nucleation. Overall, this is a great beer that I would brew again on a larger scale. It's surprising that the blackberries yield a peach flavor and there's not much bitterness. 4 stars as it's so novel.
Pours a golden orange with 2.4 fingers of long lasting foam. Aroma is fairly light mix of yeasty clove and spice, floral hop, and bread dough. Flavor is a slightly toasty bread dough followed by just a touch of yeasty clove and orange. Mouthfeel is medium due to carbonation and sharp due to nucleation. Overall, I think this is a great American Wheat, which is what I'm entering it as in a soon to be held competition. I wish it didn't have the toasty flavor, which must be from the crystal. 4 stars for being great but not perfect.
Scored a 27 at the Krausen Cup. Feedback was too much yeast character and not enough hops in flavor, possibly oxidized and too dark for style. More akin to a German hefeweizen.
