I'm looking for some critiques on this recipe that I'm throwing together. I'm trying to make a citrusy piney IPA with a little smokey character to it.
I know there's a lot of Hop Additions. I don't want overwhelming bitterness I want more bitterness to come from the aroma and flavor of the hops. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Here it is! Thanks!
Also, do you recommend LME or DME? I went with the DME because its cheaper but if it won't yield good results I'll go back to LME.
