Recipe - Alcatraz Wheat Beer

3 pound Dried wheat extract
2 pound Wheat malt
1 pound Barley malt
1 pound Dried malt extract
2 One half ounce Mt. Hood hops
Wyeast Wheat beer yeast

Make a yeast starter two days beforehand. Mash the three pounds of malt a
la Miller. Boil for one hour, adding 1One half ounces hops at the start, 1/2
ounce at 30 minutes, and One half ounce at 5 minutes. Cool and pitch yeast.
Ferment. Bottle. I primed half the batch (5 gal) with 1/3 cup corn sugar
and the other half with One half cup clover honey. After two weeks, the beer
was great. The beer primed with honey, however, was way too carbonated.
All you can taste is bubbles. In direct taste tests, this beer has more
body than WheatHook, and is slightly sweeter. Compared to EKU, the beer is
similar, but EKU Wiezen is slightly sweeter. Original Gravity: 1.057 Final
Gravity: 10.12
