Hey I am new to this forum and this recipe will be my first home made recipe extract ale. I was wondering if anyone can give me some feedback on the recipie? I was thinking that the nuggest and t-58 will give it a bit of a spicy herbal flavour/aroma to drag back the tropical flavour of the citra. I am not too fussed about being a specific style, but I like hoppy beers and have used citra before and liked the flavour, I also like paler ales. Anyways let me know If you think this is a good idea and what it will taste like!
I used the beer calculus on hopville to get the estimated numbers.
