Back in March, during the height of the Batch 9000 frenzy, I made Batch #008. My 8th batch was an American Wheat & Rye beer.
The recipe can be found here:

Overall, I was quite pleased with the way this one came out, but it could have used a bit more hop aroma. The rye adds a bit of spiciness (peppery?) which I like, and the wheat adds a softness. I’ve received quite a bit of positive feedback on this one.

This sounds really interesting. I must admit I’m not traditionally a fan of wheat beers but certain Three Floyds, products such as Gumballhead, and a few others from other breweries have convinced me to keep an open mind.
Thanks for sharing the recipe, might just have to try that one.
