Anyone ever tried anything like this? I'm curious. May try unless there's any bad feedback.

So I am making this recipe and the IBU is 75 for a Rye. Too much? My new Mac Program that is pretty nifty called QBrew says a rye shouldn't exceed 30 IBU's. Any thoughts? Can I make a Rye IPA with IBU's in the neighborhood of 60?
