8.5# two row
2# table sugar
3 oz c120
1 oz chinook at 60
.75 oz simcoe at 30
.50 oz casc at 10
.50 casc at 0
.75 oz cask dry hop
fat tire yeast
1.060 down to 1.009
mash at 149
This is pretty much the recipe posted in BYO this month. I find this IPA to taste pretty good, but I couldn't believe how light the finishing hop and dry hop are. Ohh...and %20 sugar too.
When I taste it, I can really pick simcoe out. I find that interesting because the effectiveness of a 30 minute addition has be debated back and forth for quite sometime. It appears in this case, that that traditional 30 minute flavor addition really does a great job. This may change the way I hop my IPAs...the ones lighter in malt character anyways.
