Im trying to brew a a hazy think Milkshake/smoothie ipa with a similar body to "the Brewing Projekt's Resist" if anyone has had that in the northwest part of WI near the twin cities. Its very a thick like beer. Almost like the ten-fidy version of a NEIPA (if that makes sense). I am going off of a recipe i brewed before. It was a Strawberry Milkshake IPA but it wasn't as thick and heavy bodied as I'm shooting for. So I've tried to bulk up the oats and added some flaked wheat as well to try and thicken it up. Let me know if this recipe will be good as its my first to start adding and changing malts and hops. Any and all feedback is appreciated. this is all still new to me in the recipe design world.
