Tasting Notes
Earthy, spicy, citrus, orange peel.
Grainbill:

10 lbs Golden Promise
3 lbs Pale Malt, Maris Otter
2 lbs Rye Malt
8.0 oz Honey Malt
8.0 oz Rye, Flaked

Hop Schedule:

0.50 oz Magnum - Boil 60.0 min
1.00 oz Centennial - Boil 20.0 min
1.00 oz Centennial - Boil 5.0 min
1.00 oz Columbus - Boil 5.0
1.00 oz Columbus - Flame-out
1.00 oz Columbus - Dry Hop

Yeast:

1.5L Starter Wyeast 1450

Mash @ 154 - 60 min

Ferment for 14 days @ 64, then dry-hop in primary for 7 days @ 68.

The IPA came out great, with a wonderful full-body, almost chewy mouth-feel, from the 1450, and both the hops and malt are balanced really well. I feel the yeast is very important to the outcome of this brew.

You may want to dry-hop with an additional ounce of either centennial or columbus...I don't feel the hops are lacking, but I only used the one ounce to reduce absorption loss.



Sorry for the crappy pic...my phone camera has been acting up.

Cheers!
