My wife’s cousin is interested in growing hops this year.  In upstate NY one of that hops that should grow well is cascade.  He has yet to dive into the craft beer scene, so I wanted to brew something that was mild and used hops he might grow.  I liked the look of the following recipe on HBT.  It’s a pale ale with a maris otter base, cascade, orange zest, and coriander spices.  Tweaking it for my system in BeerSmith resulted in the following.
