Brewers Notes:
I pulled this recipe out of a book in the store on German Weiss beer. They say you should keep your wheat to pale malt ratio for Weiss beers at 70/30, thus, 5 1/8 lb to 3 lb., though this one is more like 63/37. This is what the book called for. You have to use an appropriate yeast such as Wyeast Westa??? or WL Hefeweiven (WLP300 or WLP380).
Yes, Cascade is the appropriate hop for this beer.
