So, I want to brew a good IPA this weekend, and I'm looking for a fruity kinda flavor, but not over the top...not too grapefruity either. I have plenty of time for fermenting, so no rush for a "1 week need it fast" kind of beer, but I do want to make something a little different from my norm (never really done a good IPA). I would like to try and get close to the flavor that 10 barrel "joe IPA" makes if possible, but im not sure where to start
Heres the hops I have on hand to play with:
6oz cascade
6oz centennial
4oz Motueka
4oz NZ Pacifica
16oz Citra
8oz Simcoe
1oz Amarillo
and about 5oz of EKG left
I thought about doing the Three Floyds Zombie dust clone maybe?? but that calls for all citra, and since it will be my first brew with citra, im not sure what to expect.
I have read that simcoe and citra pair well, as does Amarillo, but all I have is the 1oz of Amarillo...so not sure where to use that, maybe for a FWH?
OK, so knowing what hops I have, what would you all recommend??
