| “This recipe pays homage to a beer that has unequivocally introduced many people to the world of craft beer. Wheat and barley combine to create a smooth base
for the real heroes to shine. Spanish sweet orange peel and coriander provide a flavor blast that takes center stage. This Belgian-inspired ale is an absolute classic in the beer realm, and this is my take on it. Although not fermented with Belgian yeast, the characteristic ingredients remain the same to make it an American take on the classic Witbier style.
Expect to find notes of fresh bread with supporting citrus notes of lemon and orange, and a slight haze. If you are crafting this recipe by all-grain traditional mash tun methods, I recommend adding some rice hulls to prevent the mash from getting stuck due to the high percentage of huskless wheat. If you are brewing with malt extract or conducting a BIAB approach, no modifications are necessary. Have fun with this recipe; it will produce a quaffable ale that you will be proud of. ”
