A Galaxian Pale Ale methinks. Just have to reassemble the March pump after the annual cleaning.
 
Was planning on knocking out a nice robust porter but realised I didn't have enough UK hops. Made some adjustments for this with some US hops instead. Tasted pretty nice out of the urn.

I've always been keen to try doing an APA with english yeast as I've read a few good reports, and also an american twist on an english mild, similar to DrS's light amber. So now, I've decided to do a bit of both

I've also been doing a few upgrades to the brewery and need to test out the new MT and fittings.

Mild Amber

80% GP
5% Vienna
5% Aroma
5% heritage xtal
5% victory

1.038, mashed @ 70'C

Cascade @ 30 to 25IBU

1469.
 
Haven't tried the 1469 in an APA but Bristish Ale II 1335 at the lower end of temps is awesome. Yeah, it's a touch sweeter due to under-attenuation, but I really like it.
 
Yea I was planning on keeping the 1469 around 18'C to keep the esters down a bit and is more of an experimental batch since I've got a run of brews with some 1469 at the moment.

I might mash just a little lower than 70 as well due to the under-attenuation compared with 1272, probably around 68-69 to still give some body to the low alcohol

I reckon you won't be disappointed. I always do my 1469 at 18c and jeez it's a nice yeast. I like that recipe by the way sponge may have to snip it.
