Tasting Notes

Slightly spicy rye malt character, dank/citrus/tropical hop flavor and aroma

This is my grain bill for IPA's from now on. Just enough character to stand up to the hops, but gets out of the way and finishes super clean.

I'll switch out the late hops for some variety, and probably try kolsch yeast as well.

I'll use some rice hulls as well next time.

First time using Falconer's Flight. The blend of dank and citrus is fantastic.

Its named River Rock IPA as I used a fist sized river rock to keep the ghetto rigged hop spider from floating. I hadn't used pellets in a while.

How did this turn out? Looks like something I would like to try never used the falcons flight before.

It's fantastic. It's old enough now that the hops are starting to fade. I really enjoyed the falconers flight. A good blend of dank and citrus/tropical
