alright after making several attempts of brewing others "clones" i am giving this a whirl and would like to get some thoughts ...
When i lived in Denver i drank a beer at a brewery call 2Twentytwo (want to give them a plug) it was called Melon IPA , but it was a double/imperial IPA . The one thing i did get from the brewer before i moved is that he used all Huell Mellon Hops (sorry if i butchered the spelling) This was a smooooooth beer that had a higher alcohol content with some great fruity tastes . so i put some stuff in a recipe designer and came up with the following ( i started off with Citra hops due to the higher alpha acids and fruity taste) i would like to get some feed back on the old timers
this is for a 4 gal batch
