Iron Brewer (national) Recipe

As promised here is my recipe for the national Iron Brewer competition. It is a remake of my Wild Rice Peach Wheat IPA. To meet the competition guidelines I needed to include oak with a medium toast, fruit of any kind and Chez Saaz Hops. The Fruit portion has been changed to a Quad Berry mixture of raspberry, blueberry, blackberry and strawberry. I also chose to keep the wild rice in the recipe with the thought that I know I liked the previous batch with it and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
