Description

This American Amber recipe is a very approachable balanced beer with a malty backbone and just enough hop assertiveness to avoid cloying sweetness.
10 pounds of grain, mostly Pale Malt combined with Cascade and Centennial Hops makes for an inexpensive and quaffable drinker. This beer will do well with either a direct pitch of Omega Labs West Coast I, White Labs WLP-001 or a pack of dry US-05 (select it as an add on in the accessory list). If you plan to bottle condition, be sure you have 4-5 ounces of priming sugar. You can purchase that as an accessory as well.
For emphasis: This kit does not include yeast, it must be selected from the accessories list on the right.

Assuming 75% efficiency into the boil kettle:
Est Original Gravity: 1.050 SG
Est Final Gravity: 1.012 SG
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 5.1 %
Bitterness: 31.7 IBUs
Est Color: 13.2 SRM
Mash at 152F

Other acceptable modifications to this recipe:

Add one extra pound of Pale base malt to boost ABV by .5%
Add one extra ounce of Cascade if you want to dry hop in the fermenter to boost hop aroma.
