I know the Citra/Maris SMaSH brews are played out, but I've never done a single hop beer before and wanted something easy drinking for the summer. When I went to my LHBS, they only had 5lbs of Maris, so I subbed in some Simpsons Golden Promise to make up for it.
I added Carapils for head retention and Honey Malt to balance out the hops a bit.
13lb grain bill
60 min boil
155 mash for 60 min, batch sparge after first runnings
OG 1.059
Efficiency - calculated to around 70-75%
7lb Golden Promise
5lb Maris
0.5lb Carapils
0.5lb Honey Malt
Citra 1oz @60min
Citra 1oz @15min
Irish Moss @15 min
Citra 1oz @ Flameout/rest
Citra 1oz Dry Hop
We'll see how it turns out. I was shooting for something in the 70-80IBU range and around 6% ABV.
