I've seen a few Belgian / IPA hybrids (and tasted a few commercial varieties) so I figured I'd try my own:
4.5 gallon batch
7 lbs Belgian Pilsner
4 lbs Belgian Pale
1 lb Crystal 40L
1 lb cane sugar
1 oz Chinook (60 min)
1 oz Cascade (15 min)
1 oz Cascade (flameout)
Wyeast Belgian Abbey II
Est. OG 1.073
Est. FG 1.017
My first All Grain BIAB attempt (Been doing partial mashes so far but I figure why not step it up). Should come out to 53IBU with a 9.4 SRM. The goal is to have a cross between a Tripel and a medium hopped Cali style IPA. I appreciate any and all comments and suggestions. Also, is there any benefit to inverting the sugar?
Thanks!
