This is the fourth batch I have ever brewed; the first two were recipes and the third was a disastrous oatmeal stout recipe that my cousin and I formulated. With how much of an epic failure it was, I wish I could say we we're drunk when we constructed and brewed it. Since both of us are big IPA fans and high quality hops are finally available to us, I came up with this. We're looking for a really bitter, flavorful IPA that would make a Buttgeyser drinker cry. I want it to be malty but with tones of nutty sweetness and to finish with a citrusy, earthy bitterness. But most of all, I do not want it to be undrinkable and than grow fungus. I got ideas from clone recipes of some of my favorite IPAs and original recipes I have seen online.
