Lemon Zest Weizen
If it weren't for the 'lemon twist', this recipe might nearly fit into the Weissbier style 15A of the BJCP style Guidelines. The lemon aroma and flavour imparts a particularly refreshing up-front character with softer esters and rounded wheat flavours layered underneath. Lemon Myrtle leaves (Backhousia Citriodora, a tree native to South East Queensland) may be sourced from gourmet food stores, which carry Australian herbs and spices. Once broken up, the leaves release a uniquely pungent lemon character. However, in the absence of Lemon Myrtle leaves, other sources of lemon may be used such as zest.
