Fifth Ward Comb and Crocus

Comb and Crocus is floral wheat ale brewed with just under 50% White Wheat malt, giving it its huge fresh cracked wheat character that this style of beer is known and loved for. The brewery added just a touch of caramel 10L malt to round out the malt flavor. The kettle is dosed with 10lbs./bbl of floral clover honey. Magnum hops are used in the boil to contribute a clean crisp light bitterness while floral wilamette hops are added to the whirlpool. The beer is then conditioned on just the right amount of saffron threads, giving the whole beer a delicious complimentary floral note.
