    You're going to want to use some yeast for your latest brew.

    This is the most helpful post I have seen on BA homebrew.

    So if I get this-

    Fermentables: 6# Pilsen LME, 1# Golden Lite DME

    Hops: 1oz Columbus 60min
    1oz Columbus 45min
    1oz ea Cascade & Centennial 10min
    1oz ea Cascade & Centennial 5min
    1oz Cascade DH

    Seems like it would be a bit bitter. Maybe move some of that Columbus to flameout?

    This link may help with recipe formulation www.brewtoad.com
    15oz priming sugar is a buttload of priming sugar. Check out this link https://www.northernbrewer.com/priming-sugar-calculator

    Also, as @VikeMan said, you're going to need yeast.

    We!come to the Homebrewing forum, Mike. Is this a recipe that you created or sourced from elsewhere? I presume it is for a 5 gallon batch? If it was sourced elsewhere, what were the tasting notes? You may need to trust them to predict what king of beer you'll get.

    I agree with @MrOH that the priming sugar is off for a 5 gallon batch. You likely will want to be between 4-5 oz. to prime for bottling.
