It's been a while since KK, but:
Cascade Imperial Voyager Pale Ale (IMHO good kit, shite yeast)
500g Wheat DME
100g Sugar or Dextrose
Dry hop 1g per litre of Citra and Amarillo for 5 days post FG.

Ive got an AG in the fermenter at the moment. I hopped it with Galaxy as per the Sticks and Stones recipe in the DB. I was going to dry hop it with more galaxy but might use Citra and Amarillo instead and see how it turns out.
Well since your onto AGs heres a recipe i knocked together and was planning to brew. Its an educated guess really so don't expect a clone and I havn't brewed it yet. Let me know how it goes if you brew it.

Popped into the Grand Hotel in Mornington today on the way to the races (my horse came in last, retirement looming!!) and had a couple of pots of the Mornington Pale Ale...

Wow!! Great ale, more please!!

Amarillo came through clearly on the nose and palate, thought it was with a little Cascade (a very little) but haven't had much experience of Citra beers so may have been that. Something to trial and error in the mini-batches this summer.

And next time I'm over that side of the bay I know what I'll be drinking :icon_cheers:
 
Has anyone got a reasonable extract version of this beer? I realise an accurate extract clone will be pretty hard, but i reckon not getting it quite right will still produce something great! I am new to brewing, but i was thinking something like

Morgans Unhopped Amber Extra Pale
Crystal to give it a nice colour
Wheat Dry Malt
Citra, galaxy, amarillo

I am probably miles off, but gotta start somewhere :)
