Hoegarrden-ish clone. I think it comes very close. I put a little extra orange in mine cause I like it and Chamomile to add an herbal perfume nose. If you skip the fresh orange zest and chamomile you pretty much can't tell the difference between this and the real thing. with this version usually coming out as top choice.

Special Instructions
1.2 Stage mash to ensure wheat converts.
2.I use Badia brand Chamomile in .25 oz pkg (14.5 grams)
3.Celestial Seasonings tea can be used in place of Chamomile or ommited
4.my boil volume is high because I use a 20 gal pot for 5 gal batches so my evaporation rate at boil is higher, adjust boil volume to your equipment.
5.The tea, Chamomile, Coriander and orange should be subtle reduce amounts if desired.
6.First batch of orange, herbs and spice at 5 min left in boil
7.Second batch of orange, herbs and spice in secondary right before cold crash for aroma
Great light anytime brew. Very very close to the real thing. I like the slightly elevated orange and herbal notes a lot. IMHO its and improvement over the original for my pallet. If you half the amount of Chamomile and fresh orange and omit the Tea. it will be an exact clone. Thats how I did my first brew in the spring. We crushed the keg before the summer even started. We just tapped the keg today with my second version (this one with extra orange and herbs) The taste is exactly the same as Hoegarrden except it has more nose, more aroma. I love it and so far so does everyone who has sampled it.
