I've been wanting to make a citrus IPA for some time. Bell's 2HA is among the best I've had in this style...perfect balance of citrus/malt and enough hops to make even me satisfied.
After some research I came up with a blend of the different clone recipes I have found. Here it is.
Yes, im still extract brewing. Too tought to move to all-grain at this point given the space in my apartment and my storage capacity. It's still fun NTL!
