Just Brewed this will find out in a few weeks how it is . First time brewing a Belgian IPA

How does it turn?
I brewed a Belgian IPA a month ago and it is one of my best brew ever.

I dry hopped with Cascade today. I will let it sit a few then keg. I will post a pic and tasting notes then.

Any updates on this?

It has the right malt profile and Belgain Flair but it is a little bitter. I think I would cut out the .5oz 60 min and the .75oz 30 min and see where that puts the IBU. It just does not balance at the end. The color is good.
