Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat

hmm, never got any blueberry in ther either... 

I used 1056, a nice neutral american ale yeast.

As far as extract, any 70/30 or 60/40 malt/wheat extract should work, but one thing I've learned is wheats always taste better when made with grain... just not the same when extract.  Other verieties of beer... Id debate that topic.    You could possibly do a mini mash or at least try steeping a lb or so of wheat malt with the crystal.

 

The Suneset Wheat is so good!  I had it first at beer convention thingie, and it is one of my favorite summer beers, along with Victory Whirlwind......I'll try my wheat ale first when it's ready, but will probably make my attempt at cloning it......

 

OG: 1.046
FG:(on Transfer to 2ndry) 1.006

tastes good so far, not sure if it will be close to the sunset wheat we are looking for, couple of weeks or less we may know, still have to add the blueberry flavoring when i keg.

 

I just did 10 days in primary, kegged, and force carbonated.  It is really good.  I didn't put in enough coriander or lemon zest, but it is definately noticable.  Maybe it's the freshness of all-grain, but it has a almost bread like flavor that's really tasty!

How much corriander did you use? i used 1oz of ground
I used sweet orange 1oz.

 

Where can I find this Leinenkugles Sunset Wheat?  What is the distibution range if any? Who is the distributor, if any?
I keep reading the thread and now I am intrigued.

 

the only place ive seen it where i am,NH, is at the minor league baseball park, i dont think its out here in bottles, otherwise its brewed around the great lakes, Wisconsin i believe.

 

You can find if it's in your area here..

http://www.leinie.com/find_leinies.html

You'll have to enter your birthdate, then click on skip intro at top right, and scroll to bottom.  There's a link to see where Leinies is distributed, and they can tell you where it's sold at retail.....the stuff is really good.....

 

I used 1 tsp. of corriander, 1 oz should be plenty... I should've used more.
up the
Leinies is brewed in chippawah falls, WI... abould 3/4 of the way state and to the west.  An AWESOME brewery to tour if you're ever in the north woods.

From what I've read sunset wheat is the only leinies product that they've taken national, everything else is still limited to the midwest.

 

yummy!!!, i tasted it last night, still needed more carbonation, prob a little too much coriander, otherwise its damn good, its pretty close wish i had a real one to compare it to, i'll have to make a trip to the ball park to do that
