Notes

IPA designed based on Hops on hand.
Shooting toward a Juicy, with the plenty of hops I need to use already....
I have bulk Maris Otter, so won't go out to buy US 2-row.
Used closest geographic water analysis available & Campden for the chloramine.
Finished volume is geared toward 5G + 2.5G cornies.
