I'm interested in brewing something for July 4th, so I thought I'd do a Blonde. I'm generally a pale ale drinker so I'm a little nervous about going something this light. How's this recipe look?


5 gallon batch
2.5 gallon boil

Partial Mash
2 lbs 8.0 oz Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM) Grain 43.48 %
4.0 oz Honey Malt (25.0 SRM) Grain 4.35 %

Extract
3 lbs Extra Light Dry Extract (3.0 SRM) Dry Extract 52.17 %

Hops
1.00 oz Tettnang [4.50 %] (60 min) Hops 17.1 IBU
1.00 oz Tettnang [4.50 %] (10 min) Hops 3.4 IBU

Yeast
1 Pkgs East Coast Ale (White Labs #WLP008) Yeast-Ale
 
Looks good, but it would be gone before the 4th of July in my house. You brew that baby now and tweak it to your tastes before 4th of July.

Thanks.

Not sure when I'm going to brew - I'm trying to plan things out - I've got too many ideas for what I want to do and not enough time/equipment to do it all!
