Notes

11/17/18: Originally created this recipe like five years ago and we never got around to it. Well, we sucked at IPAs for a while but we have slightly more confidence with them now.

This has been adapted for compatibility with our crazy amount of grains from Valley Malt's Community Supported Brewing program, hence the inclusion of local 2-row, honey malt and Warthog Wheat.

It's also not intended to be a modern NE style IPA. In fact, the hope is that we can make this one a bit more "old-school" with a modern flavor. We'll be using Whirlfloc and a clean yeast to try to achieve this goal. crosses fingers

Update: About 10% lower efficiency than we wanted, but okay. Ended up collection 4.75-4.8 gallons. Slightly different IBU due to messing around with hops to get things back on track, but not a huge deal. Threw a bunch of Super Pride in at whirlpool temp to make up some of those lost IBUs. Everything else seems to have gone well. Added one Whirlfloc tab and 4 tsp of yeast nutrient at 15 min.
