Rookie, need recipe help

[HuskerCubsBrewer]

Will be brewing my first all grain BIAB 5 gallon batch soon. I love IPA's, my wife doesn't. She loves hefeweizen's, wit's, wheat's, and I'm not a huge fan of those. I want to make the first beer something we both like that's an all day drinker.....like a lager or pilsner, but I can't do a temp controlled fermentation for that style. So I need a good solid shareable ale recipe that is light on hops since the wife isn't an IPA fan. I was thinking an amber or blonde ale of some sort so I can ferment at room temp. Thanks!

These are both winners... I keep 'em my rotation...
When you've gotten her ready for something a little more hoppy, go for Yooper's Haus Ale.. A very balanced APA: American Pale Ale - Da Yooper's House Pale Ale

We keep our house around 70 degrees during the day....67 overnight. How much will those types of temps affect these recipes?

Shouldn't really be an issue using either Danstar Nottingham or SafAle US-05. Both will ferment cleanly between 60-72

Welcome to the forum, from Omaha! I was going to suggest a Caramel Amber. I've brewed the linked recipe several times and it never lasts long and is always a crowd pleaser. Especially this time of year! Which reminds me, I need to get another batch going to have it on tap for Halloween..Cheers!

My personal favorite Orange Cascade Pale Ale

Before having three kidsI brewed this one multiple times a year...not too hoppy and delicious!

I have a blonde ale recipe that might work for your situation.

My wife has the same tastes as yours. She loves Blue Moon - me, not so much. I keep the Centennial Blonde around for her. It's a beer we both love and guests like it too
