I brewed this up the day after I ran the Flying Pig marathon, hence the name. It turned out VERY good, best IPA I've made, very citrusy, grapefruits, finished dry but still had some sweetness to it.

Yeah I bet that is good. I brew with some Ipa and pales with a malt bill that has vienna, although I have mostly switched the vienna to munich.
 
Yeah, it's the first one I've made with honey malt, which I think really makes a difference
 
Picture 2 months after brew.
