Notes

This started out as an IPA but I don't think the hop profile was enough to call it that. What it turned out to be was a pretty darn good Pale Ale so I changed the category I listed it in. My OG was 1.058 little low from listing final was 1.011 ended at around 6 ABV. I'll be making this again.
