Has anyone tried the following kit/recipe from Northern Brewing. I am looking into doing an IPA and thought it would be kind of fun to have an organic brew.
Organic IPA Extract Kit
O.G: 1063 / Ready: 2 months
A full-bodied and hoppy English-style IPA that strikes a balance between malty sweetness and hop bitterness. Organic caramel and base malts combined with a fruity, low-attenuating English yeast creates a hefty, rich body and respectable gravity, while additions of imported organic Admiral and Goldings hops bring pungent bitterness and floral aromatics to the glass. We suggest 2 months from brew day before cracking a bottle, but due to the high OG and hop rate, this beer will age well beyond that point if kept in a cool, dark spot. Includes organic priming sugar.

Yeast
Wyeast #1968 London ESB Yeast. Highly flocculant top-fermenting strain with rich, malty character and balanced fruitiness.

Optimum temperature: 64-72.
