A friend and I just threw together what we hope to be our first decent custom recipe. being a fan of seriously hoppy beers, we're jumping right into IIPA territory. If anyone could bounce ideas off of us on what would work/wouldn't work, it would be much appreciated. We used a beer calculator at Hopville to figure things out. Here's what we have so far. The biggest thing we're curious about is if the combination of different hops is appropriate or not.
Calculated OG: 1.069
Calculated FG: 1.017
Calculated IBU: 110.1
Color: 6 SRM
ABV: 6.9%
Fermentables:
5 lb Briess Golden Light DME
3 lb Briess Amber DME
Hop Schedule:
1 oz Warrior (60min)
0.5 oz Simcoe (60min)
1 oz Nugget (60min)
1 oz Centennial (30min)
0.5 oz Nugget (30min)
1 oz Cascade (10min)
0.5 oz Simcoe (10min)
0.5 oz Nugget (flameout)
1 oz Amarillo (dry hop after 7 days)
Yeast:
White Labs WLP001 California Ale
Any and all criticisms/suggestions are appreciated. Being the first custom recipe, we want to know what we're doing wrong or right! Thanks in advance.
