I decided that I wanted a simple Rye/Wheat blend for the end of summer, so I constructed this fairly simple recipe. I think I might have underhopped it, especially considering the Rye character which at first take seems to demans a little more upfront bitterness. We will have to see though - I put it down in primary on Sunday.
I'm also looking for a name for it - apparently they were all of of Creativity at the homebrew shop. Thoughts?
