During a sale a month or two ago, I purchased an irish red kit and a sierra Nevada pale ale clone kit, both extract + steeping grains. I have similar beers in the pipeline currently and I'd like to use these ingredients plus some extra hops to make a unique IIPA.
I'm mainly asking for critiques on the hop schedule, since I know I won't be using these grains for any other recipes since they are already premixed.
Would you change the hop schedule around? Is this fine, as is?
I have a pound of each of the follow that I can use: Columbus, Cascade, Centennial Warrior, Nugget
