All grain, BIAB light bodied beer profile. This is an American Pale ale. I'm going for a fruity, crisp and refreshingly bitter finish. I'll be using wyeast 1056 and fermenting at 66 degrees. This will yield about 6.5 gallons of wort. The hop schedule is a touch complicated, but I'm attempting to blend the aromas and flavors of the three fruitiest hops I could get my hands on. I have an ounce of each (and I'll be using up my leftover Challenger as it supposedly has some fruity notes and is said to blend well. Thoughts on the recipe?
