This recipe is featured on page 197 in Brewing Classic Styles: 80 Winning Recipes Anyone Can Brew by Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer.

  • 11 lb (4.99 kg) Wheat LME (4 °L)

  • 1.6 oz (45 g) Hallertau, 4% AA (60 minutes)
  • White Labs WLP300 Hefeweizen Ale or Wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan Weizen
  • *The recipe is intended to yield 6 gallons at the end of the boil. 5.5 gallons are assumed to be racked to the fermenter (accounting for 1/2 gallon loss). Final volume should be 5 gallons for bottling (accounting for 1/2 gallon loss).

ABV: 8.00%

Fermenting and Conditioning

  • Use 3 liquid yeast packages or make an appropriate starter.
  • Ferment at 62°F (16.7°C).
  • When finished, carbonate the beer to approcimately 2.5 to 3 volumes.

All-Grain Option

  • Replace the wheat extract with 5 lb (2.26 kg) continental Pilsener malt and 10lb (4.53 kg) dark wehat malt.
  • Replace the Munich extract with 2 lb (0.9 kg) Munich Malt.
