0007 - White IPA (Seasonal)

My first Mr. Beer seasonal, the White IPA for Spring 2012.  This can is huge, 3.75 pounds of hopped malt extract.  Includes a spice pack and an 11g packet of specialty yeast (Safbrew T58).  This one is going into the Brew Demon conical due to its extra head space.  I've modified the conical a bit, adding a more robust spigot to it.  There have been some issues over at Mr. Beer with these things breaking during the brewing cycle.  Haven't heard of any Brew Demon ones breaking (the spigots are from the same supplier), but don't want to take any chances.  Will covert the other two conicals to this spigot once I pick up some more from the LHBS.

Don't have any Qbrew info for this brew as it isn't in the database.   From the Mr. Beer website:

This White IPA is a flavorsome modification of a traditional IPA. An exciting fusion of complex citrus and melon hop flavors characteristics to an American IPA, balanced with coriander, orange peel, lemon and the velvety characters of wheat malt typical of a Belgian Witbier. Pale in color with a tightly packed white head, spicy notes and crisp finish. 

Flavor: Hoppy
ABV (alc/vol): 6.5%
SRM (Color): 5
IBU (Bitterness): 60

Brewed it up on 2013/04/07 so it will be ready before Spring is over.  If you are interested in the conical brewing system, check out Brew Demon Conical Fermenters.

Update: 2013/04/28:
Bottled this one up today.  Sample was interesting, had a flavor I'm not used to.  Wasn't a bad flavor, just different.  Not sure if it is the coriander or something else.  Also found out I didn't do a very good job of crushing the coriander seeds in the spice packet.  I estimate about 80% of them were still whole.
