Rye IPA. I need some feedback!

roffenburger:
I had my first Founders Red's Rye. I loved it! I really liked the contribution of the rye. While I'm not going for a clone, I'd like to make something similar. How does this look?

How does it look?

denny:
Never had the Founder's rye, nor do I know anything about it, but the grain in your recipe is so close to my Rye IPA recipe that it should make a really good beer, at least.

bluesman:
Looks really good. My bet is it will turn out very good too. I really like the contribution that rye lends to a beer.

roffenburger:
Thanks guys. How would splitting the crystal between C120 and C40 change the recipe?

hopfenundmalz:
Denny, the malt flavor of the Founder's Red's Rye is similar to your "Wry Smile", but the hopping is much different as you can imagine.  Very good on tap at the brewery, the dry hops were really prominant the last time I was there.
