Maybe start with a pale ale with american ale dry yeast. That way if you decide to try dry hopping later you would still be true to style. Search the recipe section of the forum there are dozens of great recipes.

Motor City Brewing Co. Octoberfest

Been brewing all grain for a few years now but part for me is the smell after mash in. My wife hates it so that keeps her out of the brewery when Im brewing.

Drove out to Motor City Brewing Works and had tour of the brewery with one of the brewers. They have outstanding pizza and the Pale Ale hit the spot. Parking is a pain in the evenings but lunch time the lot is empty.

This sounds like a great recipe....I was thinking about making a syrup of strained sweet potato, dark brown sugar and marshmellow flavored cane sugar syrup then adding it to a keg of stout that's already been aged.
