Never used beet juice in an IIPA, but it seems like it'd work for interesting color. Kinda want to try it. Grain bill looks good. I personally like around 3 oz of hops after flameout (usually a stand at 160 deg for 30 min) for my big IPAs, and a second dry hop. But I like the hop choices you made. Should be tasty!

Yeah the red purplish color is what I'm going for kinda plays into the name

mash was at 149-150
recorded OG 1.089 FG 1.012 abv 10.2%

about the beet juice I roasted about 3 medium beets in the oven until soft like a potato and then added them to a food processor and made a juice out of them and then strained that and brought up to 160 degrees for about 15 minutes to pasteurize it. I ended with about 2 cups

here is a picture of it !!

 

[MrFeltimo]

love the colour..

 

[youreanimpulse]

Yeah, I am totally doing the beet juice thing next IPA. Reddy Topper here we come!

 

[ahouse86]

yeah the beer is super hoppy the only thing that I would change would be use 2 dry hopping additions to get that hop blast in the glass
