Well, shoot. That's going on my brew list.

Did you follow a recipe/kit or wing it?

Had an old recipe that I modified because I had some spices lying around to use and leftover LME from the other batch going. Here's what i did:

3 lbs Llano Pils steep 45 min at 150-60 degrees

Bring to boil, add

6lbs Gold LME

1 lb Pils LME

2 lbs honey

1 oz Cascade

After 45 min add:

1/2 oz Cascade

0.4 oz bitter orange peel / 0.5 oz sweet orange peel

0.5 oz mix cracked coriander seed and coriander powder

After 10 more min add 1/2 oz Cascade, boil 5 more min.

Cool and add water to bring to 5 gal, original gravity should be about 1.071, maybe a little higher? Pitched Wyeast 3787.

Final gravity of this batch was 1.019 with the priming sugar so about 7% ABV.
