I brewed a ten gallon batch of the below recipe loosely based On "Who's in Garden Grand Cru" but as I tasted the beer when taking readings I thought to myself this is awfully bitter for what I was going for and So for the first time I took a look at the IBUs that probably ended up in this brew. I ended up calculationg the IBUs around 24, the beer looks beautiful and smells amazing but it had quite a tart zing to it when tasted, not that this is bad but not quite what I intended. Maybe age willl bring it to where I was going or maybe I had a heavy hand with the hops. However it is looking like its attenuating well over 80%. let me know what you all think!
