Very pleased with this. "Zesty" is the best way I describe the Citra/Simcoe combo. The Special B didn't impart any big raisiny flavor but sure made the color shine.
Numbers were all within 2 points, while ABV was right on the money despite the slightly lower than predicted efficiency.
Certainly an IPA with a bit more mouthfeel than I'm used to. I may mod this a bit, but a good baseline to start from.
