Notes

Farmhouse IPA fermented with Brett Trois Vrai and Brett Clausenii, with Calypso, Sorachi Ace and Nelson Sauvin hops.
Aim is to keep bitterness low to allow the yeast flavors and hop aroma's to come through without restrictions.

Added 1.5 liters of water at end of boil to increase volume.

After 4 days, measured gravity. 1.010!!!
Huge overripe pineapple/tropical smells coming from the fermentor. Sample tasted very dry, hoppy and fruity. Great.
Added dry hops and raised temp to 25 C.

Turned out great, very interesting flavors. Hard to pin down but a lot of overripe pineaple and tropical fruit. Nelson and Brett Trois is an awesome combination! Maybe next time sub the calypso for Hallertau blanc to push the white whine notes.
