An excellent clone of a classic mega brewery light beer A little malty nose and a very clean taste and finish. Don't worry abought the numbers, I tried to get the numbers as close as possible to what anheuser bush said as far as IBU's, SRM's and APV when is comes to bud light. So if your looking for a homemade bud light this is as close as your going to get...Cheers!!
Slight change

I Recently cut the grain bill down to 9 lbs keeping the same percentages. I also used pilsner malt in place of 2-row. And it came out even better. 40% pils 35% rice flaked or raw 25% 6-row Cheers!!
