Hey HB community I'm looking for a mid level abv (maybe around 5%). A good summer ale with lots of citrus flavor. I've looked around the site but I'm not good enough to realize a knockout recipe unless I brew it. Just looking for some suggestions guys and gals.

This one is fantastic! I am just finishing up a 5 gallon batch I brewed about a month ago. It's a little higher than 5% but it's not one that will light you up after a few. I will be brewing this again shortly as its just starting to get hot here.
 
I brewed this wheat up (Northern Brewers American Wheat that I tweaked just a touch) and it turned out great. Another plus is that it is went grain to glass pretty quick. It comes out about 4.5% and is plenty citrusy to keep me interested but also mellow enough to keep my BMC friends from running away.
