Starting Off the New Year Right! (Part 2)

So brewing the Bellowing Wheat was an exercise in excess; as you can see by the recipe I threw everything I had at this one.  

After steeping some grain for some additional starches and sugars, I boiled in some Mr. Beer Booster to kick it up a notch, a Wheat dry malt extract and Mr. Beer Whispering Wheat liquid extract to get the flavor profile.  By the time I threw in the hops, this brew was one sweet, sticky grog, high in fermentable sugars with an OG of 1.062.

...Let me tell you - after about nine days into the ferment, a quick taste and check of the numbers tells me this is going to be one strong brew. Already sitting at ~ 6.7% ABV with what figures to be a three week ferment, drinkers of this bad boy (edit: Bishop916 and Mrs. Bishop916) will be a' howling at the moon! 

Here are some photos of the fun stuff:
