That's an absolutely gorgeous beer! I'm curious on the color, too. Was it Munich malt?
Yeah, I also had some light Munich malt in the grain bill as well as 1# of 20L crystal.
17# West Branch 2 row pale malt
1# Aromatic
1# Carapils
1# Light Munich
1# 20L Crystal
1# Dextrose to dry it out a bit (West Coast style IPA)

Cool, thanks! I don't use aromatic/melanoidin-type malts in my IPAs typically, but I'm kinda curious to try them now. So it sounds like between the Munich, crystal 20, and aromatic, there is plenty of orange-color potential!
