Hop Cult IPA

This is the first batch i am brewing since before Pesach. Things have been a little crazy and I haven't had the time to brew. So I figured since I am jumping back on the bandwagon after a few months I would give my Hop Cult IPA a shot. This recipe is probably going to be the hoppiest beer I have made to date. This is brewed with 6lbs of LME and  2 lbs of DME (wheat and barley). It has a blend of Warrior (boil), Galena (5 min), Citra (5 min) and Centennial (5min). I will also be dry hopping it with Citra and Galena as well. Smack in the face hoppy is what we are looking for on this bad boy.

6/18/14 update: transferred to secondary and dry hopping with 3 oz of Citra pellets and 1/2 oz of Galena leaf- Smells hoppy..... (just like it should).

August 2014- After some conditioning time, this baby is super hoppy. Its floral its bitter is a mega IPA. I am proud. I am even more proud to share it with people who actually claim to enjoy Bud, and Coor Light. Ah the face that a sissy beer drinker makes when they try a real IPA is great!
