Tonight would be a starter night for this weekend but I doubt the doorbell will let that happen. I have an Am Wheat fermenting now that will be ready to harvest this weekend. I don't think I've used it in the past for anything that didn't have wheat in it. I've done some progessively darker and stronger Am Wheat variations before with harvested 1010 but every keg ready to go into the rotation is filled with dark beer.
Think it will work for an AIPA or APA? dj |

I made an APA with 1010 and that beer is what convinced me that I don't like 1010 any more.

Maybe Im off with this one, but one reason its used for AmWheat is its poor flocculation. So by the time it clears, your IPA will be a Pale Ale. But then again, maybe you filter all your beers.

(IMG:style_emoticons/brewboard/smile.gif) After a little head scratching I think this might be better suited to an American Rye, BJCP 6D. Not a big boy RyePA but a lighter version - we'll of course I'll stretch things a little as usual. I've got the rye around as usual and it can be a bit lighter beer, which I really want looking at the kegs in the queue for the kegerator. dj |

FWIW. The American wheat strain is reputed to be of a Kolsh origin.
Might give you an idea of which direction to lean towards. zymot |

Am Rye should fit the bill for something I want to have on tap. Just didn't want to give up the slurry. dj |
