I'm looking to brew a double black IPA this weekend and having never tried a commercial example of the style i put this recipe together based off what i think would make a great tasting beer.
Any thoughts on the recipe, also i put Chinook in for a bittering hop but I also have Columbus, Topaz, Galaxy, Summit and Simcoe on hand if they might make a better choice.
Thanks!
