Ralph's International IPA
« on: May 04, 2014, 02:42:16 pm »
I got a really good deal on 55lbs of Muntons Marris Otter. So I thought I would see how I like it in an IPA. I call this an international IPA because it has British and American malts, and Australian and American hops.

That should be great!  I'm with HoosierBrew.  I would love to hear your feedback on how it turns out.  I just brewed with a similar grain bill in an IPA and it's very good.  Decidedly English, but very good.
