Notes

This is inspired by Lagunitas DayTime IPA. Really shouldn't be labeled IPA, This is essentially a hoppy light beer using Glucoamylase in the mash @ a rate of 1 gram per lb of grist to make low FG and low carb. See HBT thread about this beer and the process.

https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/light-or-lite-hoppy-beer-recipe-process.703371/

Starting water is very soft mountain runoff, similar to RO. Bru'n Water predicts mash pH as 5.34, 5.19 without the Baking Soda.

I have made this several times using different American IPA or Pale Ale hop varieties. Its always been good to excellent. I don't think the low ABV would support a very massive dry hop load.
