I did one with t-58 and lemongrass and was really nice.

Looks nice! Could I brew a witbier with half irish pale malt or marris otter & half flaked wheat? Or do I need a pilsner malt?

Edit: Did some more googling. MO not suitable for wit.

Mine is in secondary at the moment. WLP400 stinks so bad. Its defo not a beer to be sniffing during fermentation.
