This will be tomorrow's brew. Let me know what you think. I can sub any hop addition for Centennial or Cascade also. I also have more Caramel 20 or Carapils to add.

Assuming this is a 5-gallon batch?

Adding some Cascade might go well with the Grapefruit flavors in Amarillo and Columbus, should I add them also?

Couldn't hurt

Although I'd maybe ditch the 15, 10, and 5 minute additions and just do one big hopstand/whirlpool instead.

Edit: I'll add some more hops for the whirlpool addition as well. Thanks!

I think I'm gonna sub Centennial for the Amarillo adjusting for IBUs. The malty Vienna character might go better with the floral Centennial than the orange citrus from the Amarillo. Still want that dank, though.
