I fancied giving a hefeweizen type beer a go (and perhaps rashly purchased some Safale WB-06 yeast), but I wanted to add a bit more fruit flavour to the weizen, so decided to make something with a bit more hop in it instead.
Thoughts on the hop balance in here would be nice. With so little bittering requirement in a weizen, I wanted to add it all later in the boil.

Re: Galaxy Hop-weizen (Extract)
With barely 20 IBUs you should be good to go. I think I'd go a bit more.Jocky wrote:I fancied giving a hefeweizen type beer a go (and perhaps rashly purchased some Safale WB-06 yeast), but I wanted to add a bit more fruit flavour to the weizen, so decided to make something with a bit more hop in it instead.

Re: Galaxy Hop-weizen (Extract)
I'm very nervy about 20IBU already - I still want the yeast to come through a bit.
