I would like to brew a belgian IPA but my favorite hoppy belgian is East Coast - Brooklyn Brewery Sorachi Ace saison is a great beer. I love the lemon/woody flavors and aromas. That is a beer I would like to clone.

What hop types/hop schedule have you found successful for hoppy belgians?

What I was showing is the different types of Belgian IPA,
Westcoast style - Viven Imperial IPA, Troubadour Magma are based on the famous US West-Coast Hop Monsters

The classic Belgian style of IPA - Urthel Hop-It, De Ranke XX Bitter

Then you have the Hybrid blending both styles -Houblon Chouffe

The Sorachi Ace is a nice one showcasing sorachi hops, but its not a IPA.

As for hops & timing, that depends on the version your trying to brew:

classic > I use the traditional timing>
90 or 60 min - bitterness
20 or 15 min
5 or flameout
Dry hop if needed but very rare.

Westcoast >
FWH - bitterness
20 min.
15 min.
10 min.
5 min.
Flameout/Whirlpool
Dry hop
