So, last week I went to a brew pub and ordered their IPA. And I usually love any good IPA, but this one just hit me like a ton of bricks... It was so hard to drink! The menu said it was 80 IBU at 7ish% ABV and brewed with all Centennial hops. Now, for me 80 IBUs seemed like it was a solid number and I expected to enjoy this beer. Instead it was so bitter, i couldn't drink it! The only thing I could guess is that there wasn't anything to balance out the hops? I'm planning to brew my first IPA soon and I don't want this to happen to my brew! So if there is anyone out there that can explain what was going on with that beer, I'd appreciate it!
