  I love Tettnanger, it's such an under appreciated hop. Super fruity like an American hop but it
  still has that herbal European quality to it.

  You would be much better off zesting the oranges for an orange flavor/aroma.

  To my palette Elijah Craig has more wood and vanilla/caramel flavors and Buffalo Trace has a
  fruity and spicy kind of flavor. Out of the three I would probably take Makers Mark over
  Buffalo Trace or E...

  Well speaking as a bourbon drinker, Makers Mark is pretty smooth and neutral as far as bourbons
  go so that's probably why you see it in a lot of recipes.

  How old is it? I've used Munich LME on lagers that came out crystal clear.

  Lumina is good, the owner was always nice to me when I went there. If he has his Zwickelbier
  it's worth a taste. Front street is hit or miss but their Dramtree Scottish Ale is probably the
  best thing ...

  To my palette Citra really shines as an aroma/dry hop. I've done a Citra single hop beer and,
  while it had an amazing sweet tropical mango aroma, the flavor and bittering were severely

  Personally I'd go with something like WLP090 San Diego Super Yeast for a high gravity IPA. It
  will attenuate better and let the hop flavors stand out more.

  Update on this: Krausening the beer worked really well. I added actively fermenting wort (about
  17% of the total volume) and let it sit on the yeast cake at room temperature for a few days.
