- Huge grapefruit, citrus, dry, earthy, hay, crisp
I wanted to do something different and make a really straight forward, easy drinking and crisp IIPA. Now that I think of it, maybe it's not that different...but brew it and you'll see! The Zythos in this recipe are absolutely amazing. HUGE grapefruit aroma and flavor. I love the combination of simcoe/citra, and went with the Zythos on a whim, and i'm really glad I did! Brewed my first batch of this on 9/2/12 and it's already getting some really nice brett flavors/aromas that add HUGE complexity to this brew. I guess adding brett to an IPA is somewhat of an oxymoron, as brett improves with age and a proper IPA is meant to be drunk young; but trust me - don't skimp on the brett, it really makes this beer. The combination of the dry finish from the rye, the brett character and the dry hopping schedule really make this incredible. I'm going to brew this again very soon, with some slight modifications specifically on the dry hopping schedule. I'm also planning on getting rid of the flavor addition entirely and just hop bursting. I'm curious as to what everyone else thinks of this. I'll post some pictures soon. Check it out guys, CHEERS!
