Have a buddys birthday bash - 17 August - whats my chances of having a blonde ale ready ?

Would be kegging so could force carb and figure its a blonde so not waiting on hop flavours or anything

Whaddya think ? Have I enough time if brew tomoro?
coz theres always something new to do

Do a brew of around 1045/50 and you should make it on time,cutting it close so make sure you don't f*@k up anything along the way. :)

You should be fine, 2 weeks in primary, 1 week in Secondary (or cold conditioning in a corny), 1 week force carbing. Just watch the fermentation temperature as the weather looks like staying hot. I am using a swamp cooler to keep my Rye IPA at around 20c and it is working well so far.

Keep it might and you should be fine. Use some finings too!
