Hi guys, I put this on the flavour of the week thread yesterday but didnt get alot of replies (BTW thanks to the two that did) so i thought a more specific thread title may get some more opinions....
Have a variety of hops that are getting on and i need to use them along with some recently purchased hops. I thought I would try my hand at my first Imperial IPA and i would like some constructive critique. I am confident with the mix of cascade, simcoe and galaxy. But not sure how Perle would go mixed with those 3 as I havnt used it before.
Here tis..
