It looks good! That being said, there are a few changes I'd make if I was to brew this. First, 10 SRM seems a bit dark from what I recall of this beer. I'd say more like 8 or so. I'd cut down substantially on the C60, maybe down to 4 or 5 ounces.

I have no inside knowledge of their hop schedule, but I'd take the 60, 45, and 30 and move them all to 15 minutes or less. I know this beer is supposedly all Citra, but I'd hate using 4 ounces at 90 of such a great flavor and aroma hop when none of that will show up in the beer, just its bitterness. Why not go for a couple ounces of something like Warrior? It's cheaper per ounce with a cleaner bitterness, and it frees up more of that delicious Citra to use late in the boil or dry hop. Speaking of dry hop, I'd kick it up an ounce or two.

Again, just my opinions! You'll still get a great beer brewed as is

That looks more like ZD, and PF isn't really an imperial ZD. The melanoiden is very unique and really only fits the ZD recipe.


Ok, so I've made a LOT of beer since last year when I was posting on this thread.

If you want PF, use Brian's recipe, but use WY1968. It'll be really close. I wouldn't waste the citra for the bittering, and I'd move almost all of the Citra to the end of the boil and then maybe a couple hopstands. Leave the rest the same.

Still one of the best beers I've made, and I barely knew what I was doing at the time, and had total ghetto equipment ($40 turkey fryer and a $1 paint strainer bag.)

I plan to do 5g of this in the next month.
