Single step Infusion Mash at 154°

This is by far, my favorite batch to date. It also happens to be my very first recipe.
You can find reviews of this beer here.
I believe my efficiency was down around 65, and even at that, BeerSmith says this fits into 14B American IPA, however since it's my favorite, I shall call him my Haus Ale.
I will post a glamor shot the next time I pour one.
 
Looks pretty good...I did a very similar recipe which is dryhopping right now, except twice the IBU's (well, theoretically, anyways). Very similar grain bill, and same hop profile except I bittered with Summit and am dryhopping.

As pounds of grains go up, efficiency usually goes down, so that's not too surprising.
