the biggest problem with this brew is that it is just so damned good. I swore off weeknight drinking on doctor's orders, but tried just one, and just like the old Frito Lay potato chip ads, "you can't eat (drink) just one." I just poured number 3 after three weeks in the bottle and the aroma, taste, creamy head, color; well, as perfect an IPA as I have ever had. Thanks, Yooper!

That is beautiful, congrats.
Cannot WAIT to try mine. I feel like I should be brewing a second batch right away.

Precisely why I just went to All-Grain.
With Bulk Grains and Hops, and reused US-05 yeast. I estimate the cost of this batch around 13-15 dollars!

It's cheap for me, too. I buy those hops by the pound, reuse yeast, and buy my grain in buk. My cost for a batch of this (5 gallon size) is about $12.
Extract is expensive, and hops can be expensive, too, but this recipe is worth it!
