So I have been brewing like mad to stockpile some nice summer beers. Currently for the summer:
-Dude's LWPA
-Mike McDole's APA
-Cascade/MO SMaSH
-Dry stout
-Mild
-Blonde
-Mango Wheat
-Kolsch (planned)
-Wit (planned)
-Saison (planned)

I figure I need a big, very hoppy beer to help with all these easy drinking beers. I have all the ingredients already, what do you think? I am going to have to squeeze this into my schedule, I am planning to be done with brewing for the summer by 6-1 except for the saison.

Similar to my Outburst RyePA, except I have more rye (1.5 pounds flaked), use syrup, and have more sugar to lighten the body to accentuate the hops and rye. I also use Cascade, so I can't comment on the hops, but it's my favorite beer!
