Well my very first attempt turned out kinda blah. Very easy to make, but very average middleof the road somewhat bitter beer without a whole lot of body. On the up side smelled real good!!!
sugar adjuncts

When you add sugars to you beer, it increases the alcohol, but it also lowers the body and makes it drier. Next time, try leaving the maple and brown sugar out, increase your base malt and add some darker camel malts. I think you'll be more please with the results.
I agree.

I don't like to use sugars, unless I want to make a really dry, light beer, which I usually never make. There is nothing wrong with using base malt and Crystal 60 as all your ingredients. This would give you a good, basic amber, and a good starting point to experiment from.
