I have 10 lbs of pilsner, and a pound each of; munich, vienna and carapils. I can harvest wlp029 or buy something else. I only have cascade left but my lhbs has a good selection of hops. I can only ferment down to about 62 degrees. What can I make?
Thanks
 
Why not a Sticke Alt? Just need to grab a small quantity of crystal and black malt. I've brewed a couple extract batches like this using cascade, and I was very happy with the result. Figure the the experimentation is in the spirit of a Striche Alt anyways, so why not try some hops outside the style. Found a all-grain recipe that might be handy.

I just did an extra pale ale with about what you have. I've done this several times and I have added a pound of Munich just to change up the colour and add a bit of body. Works just fine. You can sub any high AA hop for the FWH addition to get the same IBU but the cascade work like a charm. It's not a "fabulous" beer but it's and easy drinking pale ale that many people will enjoy. I also brew it with fresh yeast to give me a very flexible yeast cake to pitch on for my next batch. ;)
