Gravity Estimates

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! You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be over. You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be under.

Tasting Notes (2)

Tasted on 8/7/2017 by CheeseNips

Notes:

Imperial batch is darker than expected by maybe 2 or 3 degrees SRM, pours less foam with very fine bubbles that remain, aroma of subtle banana and slightly spicy. Taste is slightly pepper and clove, normal mouth feel, and sharpness due to carbonation. Very subtle alcohol aftertaste due to being so far over on OG, but doesn't detract from the beer. I would say this is a decent wheat beer but nothing spectacular. I know that half stars aren't allowed, so while I want to give this 3.5 stars, I will give this 3 stars.

Notes:

Wyeast batch is right on target for color, pours lots of foam that dissipates, big aroma of yeast with subtle banana and clove. Bigger flavor of yeast, banana, clove, and almost a walnut nuttiness. The alcohol aftertaste is a little more pronounced here than the Imperial, probably because the carbonation bubbles are bigger and create more effervescence but same sharpness. This is a better than average wheat beer, but still not spectacular. I would say this is a 4 star wheat beer.
