    IPA Critique

    Hey Guys, Looking for any gaping holes in my first IPA recipe. Its a lot of cash for hops, so I want to make sure the hop combos in particular will work out. Im going for a dry West Coast IPA. Water is Chicago water with added gypsum to get calcium around 100 and SO4 to around 150...

    Recipe Critique - Dry Hopped Wheat

    So its that time of year when a good refresher needs to be available :). I thought a nice wheat with some citrusy tones (I don't want to use any rinds or peels) would be nice. I would love a critique, particularly of the Crystal 120 for color (will that work?) and of dry hopping with an ounce...

    Hop combination

    Ok, so I have a bit of an embarrasing admission. When going to the local home-brew store for the first time, I had the mission of finding a way to alter my kit into a "hoppy beer", but may have gotten a little carried away. I had been reading on this board about "hop bursting" and really like...

    Recipe Critique

    Hi All, I have been lurking here for a while ever since getting the bug after my wife gave me a brewing kit for christmas! After the first batch, I was both impressed and completely hooked. I'm looking for a general critique on this recipe, which is an attempt at a moderate (bitterness) IPA...
