Written by Doug Wronka   
Description:
Here's a recipe for a Wiezenbock that I really liked, it was very much like one from our local micrbrewery.

This beer was delicious and went very fast(1 week in the bottle and to the fridge ).
Ingredients:
  • 1can (3lb 10oz) of Glenbrew Brewmart Austrailian Dunkelbock
  • 3 lbs of wheat DME
  • 11/2 light DME
  • 1 oz Hallerteau hops(3.7 alpha)
  • Glenbrew kit yeast
Procedure:
Boiled DME and hops for 15 mins in 1 1/2 gals of water. Added liquid malt and continued boil for 10 mins. Added to 3 1/2 gals of cold water and used yeast from Glenbrew kit. After 5 days I racked to the secondary and added the finnings from the Glenbrew kit. Leave in secondary for 10 days then primed and bottled.

Peach Wheat Ale
Written by Mark Stevens   
Description:
There's an excellent article by Ralph Bucca in the July/August 1994 issue of BarleyCorn that talks about various aspects of brewing with fruit. He provides some general info about handling fruit, when to add, etc., and then provides a couple recipes. One of these is an extract-based Peach Ale that should be trivial to turn into a Peach Wheat recipe. Here's how I'd change Ralph's recipe to make it a peach wheat beer.
Ingredients:
  • 6.6 pounds Northwestern wheat extract syrup
  • about 5 AAU hops (maybe 1 ounce of Mt. Hood, Hallertau, etc.)
  • wheat yeast (Wyeast bavarian wheat)
  • 3/4 cup corn sugar (or malt extract) for carbonation
  • 4 pounds fresh peaches (pitted and skinned)
Procedure:
Boil malt and hops for 1 hour. Add cold water to fermenter to bring to 5 gallons. Add wort. Pitch ale yeast. On 2nd day of fermentation, skin, de-pit, and chop peaches. Add to fermenter. Three days later, rack to secondary. Bottle 10 days later.
