Just how sweet is crystal malt? I'm trying to create an IPA with a grapefruit like aftertaste (sweet and sour) and I was thinking of using about a 1 lb of crystal malt and about 7 lbs of Liquid Malt Extract. Will that make the beer really sweet or will it just give it a medium caramel like flavor? I know flavors are totally subjective I'm just asking for an opinion from other brewers.
