Sparge: Rinse the grains to collect sweet wort.
Boil: Add Magnum hops for bittering. Add Citra and Amarillo at flameout for tropical aroma.
Ferment: Ferment with American ale yeast until clean and fully attenuated. Dry hop with Citra and Amarillo in two stages for maximum tropical character.
Enjoy: Ready to drink in about 4 weeks from brew day to glass.

This all-grain Hoppy Wheat delivers a bright, sessionable wheat ale with expressive tropical hop flavor, smooth mouthfeel, and a clean, refreshing finish.
