In today's video we check out a peach
wheat that I made for a party coming up
soon
welcome back everybody I'm Brad I'm Jessica so
instead of doing a let's say brewing
video for this peach wheat then doing a
tasting we're combining them all into
one so that way everything's in here so
this is a peach wheat there is some
interesting stuff about this it does use
4.8 pounds of white wheat 3.8 pounds or
3 and 1/2 pounds of 2-Row I did use Rahr
2-row then eight ounces of Munich and
eight ounces of rice hauls now the thing
that i did mess up on when I put it in
BeerSmith
I forgot the flaked wheat so this does
not have flaked wheat in it so the head
might not be there might not be as weedy
as it should be because of that so I
have what can I say I screwed up
then for the hops this is an hour boil
so at 60 minutes point five ounces of
Northern Brewer 40 minutes point five
ounces of Mount Hood then five minutes
left in the boil is half an ounce of
Cascade I did use the Omega tropical
yeast on this I think it's either
tropical IPA or just tropical yeast I
talked to the guy at the store and he
said it would leave it a little bit more
cloudy and it's supposed to bring like a
tropical peach vibe so that's why I
tried it now this one and the other one
we'll get into the other one in the next
video but I did use the tropical you
stop both to see if it would bring out
peach so if this tastes kind of weird
it's probably because of yeast so my
post boil gravity was 10:40 I was
supposed to hit 1042 so close enough for
the secondary fermentation I used two
pounds of frozen peaches in this so I
took them out of the freezer open them
them in there put the beer on top and
let it sit for two weeks so in the end
because this is for a party we're having
actually today this is a 5.3 4% ABV so
it won't get everybody slaughtered
usually like the raspberry does good so
head is gone I do have a white bubble
around the side yeah yeah color is
almost like God golden yeah I was gonna
say like golden lemon wheat I don't
think that the the weird part about this
is I wasn't sure if this was the wheat
or if it was the IPA because when I
transferred this it was crystal clear
so smell what do you guys smell a very
faint fruity smell
it's just faint though yeah it's more
weedy to me than anything
maybe like a yeasty fruit note something
in there I am waiting very impatient to
it and want to talk about a beer okay
huit very thin mm-hmm very thin but that
flaked we probably would have helped the
body a lot yeah that's a little bit
thinner than I'd like
yeah but I know I'd even put an orange
lace in there and drink it yeah it's
like I get the fruit but it's so faint
there's no way I could say it's peach
could you know yeah is there anything
you can add to it to sweeten it up
thicken it up at this point no nope okay
looks like we'll have to run and get
some oranges I mean I would drink it
it's nothing that I would brew again I
think if I brewed it again obviously I
would add the the flaked wheat to it and
I would probably actually puree the
fruit and see if that helps so just that
way it had more contact yeah cuz the
they just laid there right the beaches
were still there solid well right but as
temperature goes up and down it sucks it
in now but it still yeah I would have
totally pureed it and just left it in
there that's what I would have done yeah
it's definitely on the lighter side the
peach really doesn't come out you could
almost say this is just a wheat beer and
probably put cherries in it you know
whatever fruit you wanted and I'm sure
it would take over and you could make it
pretty Mike it tastes okay though you
are it's not like it tastes a rotten
I'll probably drink that yeah but it
doesn't like that yeast supposedly gave
off peach and that's why I only I wanted
to almost do it like I did it
to see how much peach really came out in
there but the
taste that I I would have to make it
with like uso five or zero zero one to
see if it really did anything I don't
feel that it did because the wheat just
comes out about yeah it's I think it
would be good but I'm gonna have to do
it again with the actual correct recipe
instead of writing it all down and just
going and getting it okay no anything
else no so if you like this video thumbs
