Ive done a baltic porter with all target gave me the perfect mellow earthy biterness to let malt show through. Dont know that it would work for an ipa but as bittering or in darker beers eg stout porters its great
I thought this was a good idea and I get a cheap beer for free fingers crossed it tastes ok. Not to estery. Might do this as standard procedure for all high gravities if it workes out.
FREE BEER.:tank:
