The grain came yesterday...now I just have to find time some time. The CaraMunich and SpecialB are cleanouts of some leftover grain I have on hand. I'm mostly going for a light-colored, not too sweet (hence the small amount of light crystal) summer PA with a clean hop profile and distinct hop flavor/aroma.
