Notes

Fermented in upper 60s (64ish...67...69...71)

Adjusted distilled water to pale profile in Bru'n Water with 2:1 Gypsum to CaCl (Mash pH: 5.30)

Comments:
Submitted to 28th Ales Open; Ale and Lager Enthusiasts of Saskatchewan (Apr-2023)

Bronze in American IPA (10 entries)

It got 44 and 42 out of 50.

Great, really positive comments. Judge 1: "Not far from perfection." Same judge also noted Isovaleric Acid (cheesy), but said it didn't detract from the beer (!?), which I thought was very interesting (I never picked up that flavor, personally). Overall I really liked it, it was like a modernly hopped of version of a true old school IIPA, malt bill based on Pliny as per interviews with Vinnie Cilurzo, hopping was just a little random and even improvised on Citra at the last minute.
