So, I now have two batches under my belt. A Blonde Ale (bottled) that turned out pretty good, and an Amber Ale (fermenting) that I have high hopes for.
For my next brew, I wanted to do something hoppy and with a higher ABV than my previous two brews. I love IPAs, so I figure I would give one a shot. Rather than buying a kit like I did for my first two beers, I wanted to build this recipe myself. I used cascade hops as an aroma hop for my Blonde Ale. I loved the smell, so I had the idea of doing an all cascade IPA.
Here is the recipe I came up with. Please tell me what you think, as I'm new to brewing and could use any advice I can get. The recipe is for a 5 gallon extract batch. Thanks and
!
