Well the reason I'm asking is I forgot to take an OG reading so I was wondering what other people came up with for this recipe kit.

Ingredients:

6 pounds of Gold malt extract
3.3 pounds Amber malt extract
1/2 pound of specialty grain (steeped)
4 ounces of hops (2oz Cascade, 1oz mid-boil Willamette, 1oz aroma Kent Goldings)
 
This was my first brew and I don't think I took any readings. But if you plug the extract into a recipe calculator it should have an OG of about 1.067 and ferment down to about 1.014 which would give you an ABV of 7%. I do not remember it having that much of a kick though.
