Like many other guys in here, I would like to make a lighter beer that my wife might enjoy. I've got 2 pounds of Honey already so I think I'll use it in this brew.
I've used Honey before but never tried a lighter beer. If this turns out any good, it may also turn into a good lawn mowing beer! So far this recipe is extremely simple. Does it need anything else?
I would love some opinions/suggestions on this recipe. Thanks!
