I've currently got hefeweizen #2 in my fermenter, and am planning my next batch. I'm going to try a variation on Line's Gibb Mew Bishop's Tipple.
Here is what I'm planning:
15L batch
340 g Victory Malt
340 g 80° Crystal Malt
28 g Black Patent Malt
Above steeped for 30 minutes at ~68°
2722 g Maris Otter LME
454 g Lyle's Golden Syrup
57 g Molasses
Boiled for 30 minutes; then add:
43 g Bramling Cross - 7.4 AAU (60 minutes)
Fermented with WLP005 (British Ale) at 15°-18°
Predicted OG: 1.070
Predicted FG: 1.020
Color: 33° EBC (Light-Medium Brown)
Bitterness: 50 IBU
Thoughts?

Re: Bishop's Tipple (OG)
Steeping at -68 degrees will require a dry ice/acetone bath and probably wont extract much

Looks quite nice
