A buddy wants me to brew him an IPA.
He usually drinks New Belgiums `Rampant IPA`
I have some Marris Otter that i'd like to use as the base malt.
Anyone here try this?
How did it turn out?
Was the malt too nutty to let the hops shine?
Was it well balanced?
Many of the IPA recipes i've seen use the 2-row and often add in C-40 for color/flavor....I was thinking of using JUST M.O. or perhaps a touch of carapils.
The hops i intend to use are Mosaic, centenial, & citra which are similar to the NB beers hop profile, their malts used are pils + black i beleive but don't know in what amounts.
Input anyone?
