I'm going to brew batch #2 --- a English Brown Ale - Southern ---- so this will be a malty brew.
Using BeerSmith on the recipe I get a IBU of 12.5 --- which is in the lower range of 10-20 IBUs for a Southern Brown Ale. I'm tempted to do a minor hops boot to hit an IBU 15.
I am indeed looking to brew a mild smooth ale .... so am I quibbling about a points of IBUs ??
