I brewed it last month, was more like an IPA, Killed the Keg way too fast
Yes I will brew it again. While I was expecting a standard Pale Ale, it was a surprisingly refreshing IPA. One note- NB says its ready in 6 weeks, I kegged it after 6 weeks (2 weeks Primary, 4 secondary) and cold conditioned for two.
I'm doing this in the next few days. I've already got all the ingredients so I didn't order the kit. Should be very close to NB's recipe.
I like hoppy IPA's and this is looking much less hoppier than most of what I like to drink but I also like variety and this looks like it will please others who aren't into very hoppy beers. I love Chinook and haven't done much with Citra so the use of it in dry hopping, however small (1/2 ounce seems very small) sounds interesting. I'll make it as per the recipe and tweak later.
I usually do 3 weeks in a primary then a week or more in the keg before putting it on gas. I'll likely use 05 yeast as I always have some handy.
