Hydrometer sample of the new dIPA.

Might as well throw up a shot of the bIPA/CDA.

Oh man I've been busy lately. I did manage to get a brew going on the 3rd of this month. 6lb Pilsen LME, 2lb Extra Light DME, 1lb Light DME, 8oz Caramel 10L, 2oz Columbus, 1 oz Chinook, 1oz Summit, 1oz Centennial, 1oz Amarillo, Wyeast 1272. This was my first time using yeast nutrient, also the...
