Notes

This was a fun experimental beer I brewed. The concept was to double the hop additions throughout the boil, then do the opposite throughout the dry hop phase.

The final two hop additions are keg hops.

The beer tasted very similar to Apocalypse IPA and will be a nice substitute now that 10 Barrel sold to Bud.
