This was my first attempt at recipe formulation. It's still in the primary right now, but the SG sample that I just took tasted pretty dang good!! (I brewed on 03/02/09) It's down to 1.012, so I'd say it's done, but I won't know for a couple more weeks. Just thought I'd post the recipe and see what kind of feedback I got.

5.00 lb Extra Light Dry Extract
1.00 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine
0.50 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 10L
0.50 oz Glacier [6.00 %] (60 min) Hops 8.8 IBU
0.50 oz Cascade [5.40 %] (45 min) Hops 7.3 IBU
0.25 oz Glacier [6.00 %] (5 min) Hops 0.9 IBU
0.25 oz Glacier [6.00 %] (0 min) Hops -
0.25 tsp Super Moss (Boil 10.0 min) Misc
1 Pkg American Ale Blend (White Labs #WLP060) Yeast-Ale


A few notes:
- Steeped the grains for 20 min @ 160* in 1.5 G of water
- Remove grain and bring volume to 4 gallons
- Added ~1/2 of the DME at beginning of boil
- Added remaining DME at 20 min
- Added Super Moss @ 10 min
- Cooled wort to 78*
- Pitched at 72*

Like I said, my first attempt, so any and all feedback is welcomed. I will let everyone know how it turned out after I bottle and it conditions.
