Going to mash around 150F with 13.75qts of water. I'm not sold on the 1214 but wanted something a little estery but not overly fruity. I want to haze too so the yeast needs to be low foculation. Anything wrong with this that you can see?

Looks good sause. I brewed this a couple of weeks ago. Similar desire for a light Belgian summer quencher.

Looks good.

i've thought about making a lighter beer using a belgian yeast. i've only really used it for dubbels, trippels, belgian strongs, etc. do those high gravity yeast strains work well for, say, a light 5% summer beer? i'd imagine they'd do the job pretty quickly.

How did the hig gravity work brew? Was it estery? I'm not really into the spice thing but a kind of pilsner/pale ale thing was what I'm going for.

cool brew

What temperature are you guys planning on fermenting at? I want to make a Belgian Style also, but a LME/grain version. Also, what does the irish moss do to the brew?

As close to 70 as I can get with this one. I normally try to keep my beers close to 60 for ales and 50 for lagers.

Fwiw, I tend to associate refreshing brews with drier less body which the Dextrine is contrary to. That would be the only thing I'd personally change. The combination of malts and hops looks right in the ballpark of what you are shooting for though, imho.

What would you think about subing the Cara-Pils with White Wheat Malt? I was looking for some haziness anyways.

Definitely.

It is a pain to mill though if you haven't used it before. I buy it from the health food store.
