So I was at the LHBS yesterday and got the sudden urge to buy hops I don't immediately need. Don't we all do that?
I picked up 2oz each of Simcoe and Cascade, to go with the 2oz of Summit I already have. I figure, let's empty out the freezer all at once and do a big IPA/DIPA. With having 2oz of everything, the number 222 kept rolling through my head, specifically "three of a kind, twos" like in poker. When I found the nickname for this hand, I knew I had my name: Huey, Dewey, and Louis DIPA (three ducks).
I figured since I have four different "standard" time for addition, I would split the hops up evenly between 60, 20, 5, and dry hop.
The grain bill is what I'm a bit concerned about. There's a *lot* of bitterness here and I need to be sure to balance that. I want that nice rich color and sweetness, but not too dark.
Anyways, here's the recipe:
