I have been inspired to attempt to design the beer I am truly seeking in homebrewing. Thanks to my recent first taste of Loose Cannon IPA and Yoopers House Pale Ale I've gone to the drawing board and come up with this recipe.
I have never put one together but I am seeking a good hoppy beer with a malt balance. I know it's a bit ridiculous with all the .5 oz additions but I'm hoping to get some bitterness out of this but then finishing with strong citrus notes.
I'll call it Big Lick Blues IPA
Honest opinions please! I don't want to brew it if it looks terrible!!!!
