SN Celebration Ale Partial-Mash Clone?

[jsmurphy]

I'm thinking of trying this for my next batch. I found a couple of recipes online. Anyone have a Celebration Ale recipe to share? (Partial mash).

Thanks...

Actually, I'm going to convert an all-grain recipe I found. Actually three different recipes, and I'm going to experiment with ingredients from all three.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Just a quick update.

This beer looks and smells awesome. I used pale DME, some grains, Wyeast 1056 and hopped with Chinook, Cascade and am dry-hopping with Cascade also. I combined a couple of different recipes and added a bit of choc. malt for a darker color. I think I nailed the Celebration Ale color, and those Chinook hops are powerful and tasty! I think the Cascade will mellow them out just right.
OG was 1.068 and FG was 1.024, which isn't quite as low as I was shooting for, so I think I should have used a yeast starter for such a high gravity brew.
Will be in secondary for at least 2 weeks.

This will be a great holiday brew.:)

Sounds good js. Can you post your recipe/procedure and then let us know how it turns out.
