Gave away about 16 beers go get opinions. So far it is the favorite. It will definitely be a brew again.

Brewed this up, looking forward to trying it!
I adjusted the grain bill to use Crystal 10l versus Cara and also 4oz honey in the mash and 12oz at 10 in the boil As well as used the hops I had on hand (cascades same amount though!) was able to get pretty close to the stats though
Pre boil 1.046
SG 1.062
We shall see it’s very very active haha 😂
Thanks for the outline dude!

This recipe is fantastic. Only change I made was to add the honey at 10 minutes instead of 30 to try to get a bit more honey flavor in the finished product. I'm so impressed by the WB-06 yeast! I've never used dry yeast on a wheat beer before, but this yeast was wonderful. Beautiful banana and clove aromas from the finished beer and enough honey flavor and aroma to accent the beer but not overpower it.
This may turn into a new "house" beer, it's that good. Thanks for the recipe!
