OK, have some Galaxy and Citra in the freezer and want to try them. I've read both are great but even better when blended, especially with each other.
I want to do something simple to showcase their hop flavors but also have a nice backbone. I'm guessing this falls into an Americal Pale Ale:
Tell me what you think - enough malt backbone there with just the 2 base grains?
thanks
