On Tuesday, May 1st, I racked the hefeweizen to a secondary fermenter (5 gallon carboy). I thought it had strong aromas of banana and clove. Both my wife and daughter said they smelled peaches, cloves, and general spiciness. Either way it had good fruity esters, just what you expect from a German style weiss bier.
I have also ordered the ingredients for my next beer. It will be a Wee Heavy. It is the beer I also brewed the last two National Homebrew Days, which is always the first Saturday in May. This year I won't be brewing on Saturday but I will be where it is being done. And, of course, I will toast the day with a couple of home brewed beers.
