US-05 is a strain of questionable biotransformation capacity. It's possible there's some going on (e.g. acting on oils from whirlpooling), but not really the aim of this recipe.

I finally got around to brewing this, just sampled out of the fermenter and it is tasting very good. Colour is a little light.
I'll post back here in a week or two with some feedback.

Cheers Moad, that's a shed load of hops in there look forward to your tasting notes. This is getting higher on my 'brew list' I'll wait to here your opinion.

Well that is rather a lot of beer to both bottle and drink...
Looking forward to the tasting notes on final product.

results are in...
Kegged and force carbed so still some settling and mellowing to do but initial taste is bloody good.
It is definitely lighter than the real thing, it isn't quite as chewy as I expected
Bitterness and malt profile are pretty close and it is a little more late/aroma hop dominant than I wanted but that should mellow a little.
I was about 9L over my volume so will boil off a little more next time and that should bring the colour and gravity back to targets.
Even though it isn't spot on it is still a cracking beer, will definitely brew this again

I rebrewed this recently. I found it a bit too dry. I am going to it again soon but will add some Munich this time and possibly look at changing dry hop to get more aroma.

OG and SG? I'll probably rebrew soon too.
