I was going to do an American wheat, but the wheat ran out so I subbed in some rye instead. Perhaps too hoppy for Jye :rolleyes: but should be nice for summer. My first try with this yeast but have tried a few beers made with it and it should work with this style being a lowish flocculator.

Tomorrow is a double batch of American Amber. Aiming for 6.66% and 66IBU. Oh yeah.
