Any idea of what hops go into this beer? I tasted it the other day and really liked it. It had fairly low IBU's but had a lovely floral/hoppy aroma. Would really like to try to attempt a clone. Very easy to drink with the low bitterness.

cheers for link Oldsock, had a look at the site alright. never seen the pdf for Lupulin.
I actually got my St. Lupulin shipped over from the UK, probably available in Dublin I guess. I will make some sort of attempt at a clone. It will be nice for once to make a hoppy beer with fairly low IBU's. A beer with cascade and centennial along with some perle is gonna taste good to me anyway
Where'd you get it from in the UK ?
I emailed Odells and here was their response. Hope this helps:
Some of the hops we use are Columbus, Perle, Chinook, Amarillo, and
Centennial and we hop back using whole flowers of some of these. Some of
the malts we use are Pale Malt, ESB Malt, Vienna, and Caramalt. Both the
IPA and St. Lupulin are hop backed and dry hopped in addition to the
boil addition.
I'll take a stab at the recipe this weekend and then post it soon. I'm going to email Odell's to see if they could tell me the OG and the IBUs. This should help me figure out the grain bill and hop additions.
If anyone knows what kind of yeast they use, this would be really helpful. I'll see if I can find this out also. Anyone have this info?
Well I brewed this up Friday.

Used WLP029, I hope to hit a target Final Gravity around 1.012 which will get around 6.5% ABV. Probably dry hop with Cascade and Amarillo, I will decide depending how it tastes when I rack to secondary in a few weeks.
