- Tasting Notes
- Hot for a while, but after a few months it smoothed out and was sublime
It's a Houblon Chouffe Belgian IPA clone. Maybe not much of a clone, but good. It has the hops to put it in Belgian Specialty, but it drinks somewhere between a triple and golden strong.
Style: Belgian Specialty Ale

--- FERMENTATION ---
I'd recommend fermenting this below 70 for the first week, then bring to room temp.
Give the Wyeast 3711 at least 3 weeks to finish.
--- NOTES ---
I'd use pilsner malt if I made this again. Not sure why I brewed this with 2-row.
