Anyone ever added any late boil additions to an IPA other than hops? Any spices or sugars or anything else for that matter? Just wondering if they were just overpowered and covered up by the massive IBUs in an IPA?
 
Recently oak and Spanish cedar aged IPAs have gained some popularity (Cigar City etc…), although I haven’t really loved any of the ones I’ve tried. Same goes for additions like spruce and citrus, I just like the character that the American hops give on their own.

I often add some highly fermentable sugar to my bigger IPAs to help dry them out.
