This is my first recipe, going for american pale ale to use up my spare hops...does anything look out of place here?
I know my grains should be fine per style, and my IBU is where I want it.
But what about the hop combination? I don't know the difference between flavors of hops yet so please let me know if I have any clashing flavors/aromas here. Thanks!
