Using Sunny Brae hops for local PA flavor. Best Malz Red X Malt will provide the red color. California lager yeast will provide a clean flavor. Dextrose to make up for thinking I was getting and extra .6lb of LME. Due to the partial boil, this will not be as bitter as calculated, but I like having all those checkmarks in the Style Guide (even though it won't really taste like a California Common).
