If there are three things I love, they are the Boundary Waters and Beer and Beth (the three B's). So when I saw this recipe on midwestsupplies.com, I had to try it. Romer came over ate some chili (see bobcatchow for recipe) and made a batch of brew. I plan to bottle it in some plastic bottles and take it on my Boundry Waters Canoe Trip this year. Whos in?

1/2 lb. Carapils
1 oz. Sterling hops
1 oz. Palisade aroma hops
White Labs American Hefeweizen WLP320

OG: 1.042
FG: 1.009

ABV = 4.3%

Fermentation Temp: 68

  8. "The three B's" .... hahaha I love it! Somehow, though, I doubt that you will ever enjoy all three things at the same time - I can't see how the Boundary Waters and Beth would mix (for the record, I don't think I would mix well with the Boundary Waters, either - not the crazy way you boys do it - "roughing it").
