Next brew!

I didn't have a 30 minute addition, I did have a 15 though

I had an IIPA from deschutes that was pils and oats. I really liked it, but thought the pils taste should be toned down. And read that oats is good for mouthfeel and head retention

Bump

Brewing this tonight. Too late for changes, but let me know what you think. 4 gallon batch. Only thing I forgot to add is 4 oz hop stand and 3 oz dry hop

Arrogant bastard clone

Not nearly as bitter as the real deal. But way hopper. It should have came out at 90ish Ibu so not sure what happened there. It's good though! Great head.

I have not tasted it carbed yet. I'll try it next week when it's been in the bottle 2 weeks

Dropped down to 1.016, which I can live with. Dry hop for 7 days then bottle. Tastes very interesting with Conan. It is way fruitier than the real arrogant bastard. It's also not nearly as bitter as I expected for 77 ish ibus

Peak organic IPA. Tastes old and grassy, but it was free... And it's at work. So hey!

The bulk of fermentation is over and it's sitting at 1.018. Turned the temp up to 68 and am hoping to drop a couple more points. Hydrometer sample is super tasty pre dry hopping. Good bitterness

Btw the link to the candi making thread is wrong... Anybody have the correct link?
