The below recipe is what I will be brewing next weekend. It's based off a friend's recipe and I haven't brewed it before so it isn't shared.
I am especially excited about the bottling sequence that I have in there. Grabbed it from another recipe b/c i thought it was a good idea.
Just thought I would throw more ideas your way.
