Rather than brew another batch of the 'Programmers Elbow ESB' from 'Brewing Classic Styles' (which was too nice to leave alone when it got to 2 months old!) I decided I wanted a nice american IPA.
I had a few different hops in the freezer but nothing that combined to match a recipe that exists on here, so thought I would have a go with building a recipe on BrewersFriend and use up some of what I had at home.
Malt bill based on the pliny clone, and hops were a total shot in the dark...
Any feedback on the recipe welcome, good or bad! I will see how it turns out in due time as I brewed this yesterday (and for the first time hit the OG nicely).
