AG#3 citra!!!

Hi guys, the kids are at their grandparents today so I am going to take advantage and get a brew on.

It is a user upper prior to a new order and reflects that. I thought I had more maris otter and the complexity of the grainbill reflects that.

AG#3 Citra!!

Barry, user-upper or not, that sounds like it'll be delicious. Looks like a nice "American All-Day IPA" to me. Cheers!

Looks like a good recipe, I like adding Munich malt to an IPA myself and Citra hops are great. Look forward to the snap shots

Cheers

Having recently bought some Vic's Secret pellets from Dean on Ebid, i am considering changing my recipe and putting in 50g of these instead of the planned citra dry hop.

Has anyone got any experience of Vic's Secret on it's own or in a combo?
