I recently brewed an Amer Brown ale that is clarifying in secondary at the moment and due to an ingredient swap at the last min I ended up with to sweet of malty taste and not enough bitterness to balance it.
My options are to dry hop, but that won't give me the bitterness I'm looking for or to blend in a portion of my Amer IPA that is in primary. Both used pale malt extract as the base. Also are there any good guides on blending, mabye pertaining to IBU gains.
Brown - 1.058 og 1.013 fg 20 1.5 oz 4.5% willamette @ 60 and .5 @ 25
IPA 1.078. - 1.017. 77 IBU hops all columbus
