Morebeer's Pliny the Elder

[jtang0]

I have never brewed an IPA, much less a double IPA, but I brewed this up yesterday, and I am pumped about it.

For an extract kit, it was kind of confusing, and I ended up pitching the 1lb of corn sugar in the boil at the beginning, but I figured it out. It is in the primary now, and I had yeast activity in less than 5 hours! (That's a record for me) Even being in the fermenter, this brew smells amazing!

Totally psyched about it, and hoping everything continues to go as planned.

I've got the kit, and plan on brewing it as soon as I am done with all of my overtime here in mid April! I am pumped too. That and my Holiday Ale.

Put my first bottle in fridge yesterday for a Saturday consumption, so I will let you know. I want to get my hands on a real Pliny to compare, but here in Indiana, not possible...

Brewed this a few times, however I played around with hop bill and dry hop schedule, never had a bad batch.

Heres mine. I brewed it almost 4 weeks ago and put it in the keg for the 4th. Has good carb, I think the clarity will improve with time. Very hoppy and delicious!!

I'm going to attempt a partial mash version of this beer from a recipe I found on here. I'm pretty excited about it.
