I brewed my hoppy wheat "80-Acre Boulevard Brewery" clone on Sunday afternoon. It went fairly well, but we've been pushing the envelope a little too aggressively on the grain to water ratio in the mash tun, and well, we paid the price. But, it actually turned out well for us, since it was more in line with the original recipe anyway.
Just worried that the "brewhouse efficiency" might need to be addressed in the future, just so we don't run into any major issues with regards to that.
All in all, nobody was seriously burned and we didn't lose more than a pint of wort, so that's a success in my book!! ;-)
Screwed up and didn't get the liquid yeast starter 3 days in advance, so I did a split-batch of dry and liquid for this one. Will be interesting to see the difference in tastes because of it.
