With that said, I'm guilty. My latest IPA is 82% 2-row, 8% Munich, and 8% C40. Maybe it's all the cold weather and snow out here; we need the extra calories to keep us warm.
Just for the heck of it I'm going to make an IPA with probably 80% 2 Row and 20% munich and no crystal. I have no problem with crystal, just want to check it out for curiosity sake.

Pale ale is awesome, and just made an IPA today.

Pale ale is awesome, and just made an IPA today. We have an APA on tap that is the Vinnie "Hop 2 it Recipe" and all Mandarina hops. It is a crowd pleaser. Mrs R says we need to do an Oberon type of American Wheat Beer, but use Mandarina. I like her thinking.
Love the Hop2It recipe and Mandarina. Need to get the two together soon. EDIT - An Oberon type beer would be great with Mandarina. A perfect match.

A perfect match.The Bell's yeast has an orangey ester, so I would grab some from a bottle and culture up. Might make it less ABV than Oberon, I think it would be dangerously drinkable and I don't want 5.9%.
