So the IPA I made using some hops I dug out of the freezer is in the keg. Ended up at about 1.009, really dry, which is what I was shooting for. The problem I have with this beer is it's not as bitter as I thought, which makes some sense since the hops were from the 2005 crop. But, it is really fruity/citrusy, I think as a result of the Cascade and Bramling Cross hops used as flavor/aroma additions.
We had a party this weekend and everyone seemed to enjoy the IPA, so it can;t be all that bad. Guess I can choke down the other keg! Cheers.
