So the Blonde came out great, just added a little extract to when kegging and it tastes fantastic. The Hefe didn't fare so well. Just didn't turn out well at all. No off flavors, nothing to suspect it went wrong, just doesn't taste good. I love Hefe's, but i've never had a bavarian hefeweizen so maybe i just don't like them. Definitely has the profile of hefe but maybe the apricot puree ruined it. I don't know.

Yeah I've wanted to make it for a long time, but it's such an expensive recipe that I never did. I am looking forward to trying it as a blonde, i'm sure it'll still be pretty good.

Thanks all. I still have the extract to add at kegging for the blonde, hopefully the hefe turns out good.

Thanks, this was my first Hefe and I was super excited about it and was kinda scared i'd messed it up. I knew it would still be drinkable, just wasn't sure how much it would change the style.

I made two beers this weekend, a Bavarian Hefeweizen and Dry Dock Brewing Co. Apricot Blonde. The recipe for the apricot said two add a pound of apricot puree 2-3 days after fermentation starts. When I went to add it to the beer I wasn't paying attention and added it to my Bavarian Hefeweizen instead of the blonde. I'm not worried about it messing up the blonde as it will just be a blonde instead of an apricot blonde, but how is this going to effect my Hefe. Any ideas?
