My SWMBO tried a Red IPA for the first time the other day, and she was so in love with it that I had give brewing it a whirl. I'm brewing this to enjoy for an Army Football tailgate (thus the name.)

I took the grain bill off my Irish Red recipe and combined it with a tweaked version of my IPA's hop schedule. I should know in a couple of weeks if this is worth drinking. Will post pictures afterwards.

looks good! i made an amber ale that's still in the fermenter as well. but i did 1OZ 7c's and 2 oz at flame out another of 7c's and one of simcoe 5 days dry hopped. you will have to post some pictures of the color once its done and fill in the tasting notes! i love the idea of an Red IPA.
