My homegrown hop IPA is just...
My homegrown hop IPA is just about done. 6.2 abv - IBU's unknown - I know I used more than a pound of hops in it - and they were all grown in my backyard #Hipstamatic #Americana #Inas1982 #CherryShine

al_polanski: what kind do u grow?
mattmelcher: @al_polanski nugget Columbus chinook
hertler: How did this beer turn out?
mattmelcher: @hertler - funny - I just poured a glass before I saw this. Delicious! Amber colored with a nice off white head. Spicy hop aroma with a biscuit malt aroma. Smooth even bitterness with an abundant spicy earthy hop flavor. Definite citrus flavor dominated by orange and tangerine. An abundant caramel malt flavor nicely balances the hops. Smooth finish. A very drinkable beer that I would be proud to serve my best friends.
