Brewing an American Lemon Wheat Ale

After trying a local "Lemon American Hefeweizen", I thought I might try my hand at creating a clean and refreshing lemon wheat ale, brewed with Lemondrop hops! The end result was tasty, and today we'll talk about both the brewing process, and final result!

    Sou do Brasil e por aqui fazemos do mesmo jeito, mas temos limões verdes, chamado de Limão taiti, é muito aromático, eu deixei 2 semanas com hortelã na vodka na geladeira, por aqui também o hortelã cresce em todo lugar. O bom é que nosso verão dura uns 6 meses, o ruim é que a cerveja dura nem um final de semana (weekend) 😂. Parabéns pelo canal.

    Sounds refreshing. Warm days are definitely gone in our neck of the woods. Doesn't mean you can't sip a refreshing beer and reflect on those wonderful days. Cheers!
