Hi all,
I just picked up a Country Brewer Summer Wheat Wetpak to make a Hoegaarden clone from the LHBS. This is a list of ingredients, and tell me if i'm wrong, but it's meant to include hop pellets?
1x Tub malt
1x Packet Yeast
1x Packet miscellaneous powder
1x Packet Orange rind
1x Packet Wheat
Cheers,
Bob

From the looks of it on their website it should.

I'd be giving them a call to find out exactly though.
I don't know about this 60min "simmer" thing either. I hope you don't simmer the grain.
Cheers, Mat.

I made this last year, it was my seventh brew.
I followed the instructions exactly and no I don't remember any hops being included.
Being citrus, wow didn't I get a shock of that awful smell when I opened the lid after fermentation. That's what my thread was about! Did I have an infection?

Anyway, I bottled it and two weeks later I poured the wife try a glass, and sat back and watched. She liked it? ..................So I had some too.
I liked it after half a glass, it was rather moreish.
Summary: Excellent summer beer. Better than Hoegarten.
Better the longer it conditions, although it does change ever so slowly. Awesome head. Massive head!
Enjoy, t'is good.
