A month without brew so making something special to celebrate

Well after a huge new years and a couple of resolutions of a reduction of beer and alcohol intake, this means the month of January bar the Australia Day weekendis to be dry (already think this will be a struggle.
I have decided on a Summer brew that is meant to be similar to Little Creatures Pale Ale, the basic recipe came from the Malthouse site. This recipe should provide a nice drop and my first venture into some more complex brewing rather than relying solely on a kit, this will be the first brew for the MC residence and should be rather good by the pool and on the beach, according to Pinko this beer should provide a nice malty beer with a good hoppy taste, the recipe is

ESB Pale Ale
Dried Light Malt 1kg

Crystal Malt Grain 150g
Chinook 25g & Cascade Hops 25g

Safale Yeast

Hope all had a good New Years and Happy brewing!

I'll bring a kilogram of that well-priced malt around on Wednesday, Mixy!

Four months in and you'd be about due to get that brew on, hey Mix?
