well it's pretty bitter, for having only about 5.5%. if i had put the flavoring hops in at the right time it probably would be a little more balanced. beersmith says 78.8 IBUs.
but thanks for all of the replies, i am just going to let it sit for a few more days and bottle.
would adding 1/2 -1 lb. of sugar to the fermenter dry it out and take away some of the sweetness?
UHMmmm.. i may be way off line but isnt sugar sweet? If i didn't know anything i would guess that adding sugar would sweeten what ever it was added too.. right?

Nope, standard table sugar is nearly 100% fermentable and it will dry the beer out
