So long story short I have this Belgian Abbey II yeast that I don't really want/need because I don't really want a traditional Belgian beer or one of the higher gravity beers that Wyeast suggests for the yeast. I really want a hoppy IPA and I've wanted to try some New Zealand hops so I came up with this idea. It may be stupid, I have no idea, many of these things I have not used before so tell me I'm either an idiot, a genius or somewhere in between.
