Please let me know what you think of the recipe below. I’m going for a maltier version of a DIPA, something along the lines of Great Divide’s Hercules. This is basically a scaled up version of Jamil’s regular IPA, with a hop schedule inspired by Pliny. My only concerns are the amount of crystal and (too much?) and Munich. Might consider bittering with something other than Chinook as well; something cleaner.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
