Awesome, and congrats on placing!

Looks solid, might brew it this weekend. Will probably add 2-4 oz dry hop addition though. Congrats

This sounds great, any chance you could specify the hop amounts? Left trying to guess for the late additions.

Will do - later this evening or in the AM.

Having a pint of my take on this right now, great beer. I changed cascade out for amarillo, but kept everything else the same. I used 15 grams of amarillo and citra at 5 min, and 15 grams at 0 min.

Here is a picture of it:

Looks good. Ironically one of the reasons I was going to try this one is I'm all out of Amarillo, haha

Funny - I did a similar one as a pale ale where the grain bill is a bit different, but the Citra is replaced with Amarillo.

I must say, this is a great IPA. Thanks for having me over Derek. Definitely need to brew together as suggested.

Thanks for the compliment as well as the company on brew day. Next time you'll have to stick around a 1/2 hour longer so you can see cleanup!

hahaha. Yea I want to get out for the entire process, wish I was there for the mash in. Let me know when you do your next batch. I'll hopefully have a few more samples I can bring over.

Forgot to post sooner.

Ended up brewing this as posted above and am pretty impressed with it (nearing the end of the keg). Would defiantly recommend it.
