I find it fairly interesting how people tend to have similar ideas on here on a regular basis. Putting this down tomorrow any suggestions to get more of an ipa flavor how does doing a small hop boil work? Want to make sure it isn't too bitter but lots hoppy which i liked about epic ipa.

Is this too much sugar/malt overall where will my final alcohol content be around? i'm thinking about 10-20 g hops steeped at a light boil in 5 liters or so with brown sugar and maple for 10 to 15 min then dry hop the rest of the hops. Anyone know what bittering and flavor hops are used in the two above kits? Pride of ringwood?
