Here is a recipe that I've brewed in the past that has always come out well. It's setup for a final yield of  about 10 gallons...Cutting all ingredient amounts in half will work for a 5 Gal batch.  There is also an extract 5 gal version towards the bottom.

 

Recipe Type: All Grain
Yeast: Kolsch or US-05
Yeast Starter: Slurry
Batch Size (Gallons): 10

Original Gravity: 1.053
Final Gravity: 1.014
IBU: 35.2
Boiling Time (Minutes): 90
Color: 6.7
Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 14 at 68 degrees
Additional Fermentation: Cold conditioned for 10 days
Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): Straight to keg

As APA’s go, it’s malty enough to really stand out as a very flavorful beer without overdoing the bitterness. I substituted Centennial for the Galena and dry hopped this batch with 1/2 Oz of Centennial for 7 days. That really gave it a nice “Whoosh” I was looking for.

This is maltier and more robust in flavor than SNPA in my opinion. If you love the hop flavor / aroma without the super high bitterness, this is perfect
