That's pretty close. For me, the black malt is over the top with astringency when I want to get it real dark. I use a de-bittered black like Briess Blackprinz it's like 550L and doesn't taste like burned coffee to me.
I also like mine to dry out to around 1.012, so I sub out a pound or so of LME/DME with dextrose.
I also use some Briess Midnight Wheat for color, flavor, and body.
Check out the "Darth Vader" thread.

Also, I haven't heard many good things about dry hopping with warrior. I would use it for the 60minute bittering (I actually use warrior for bittering all my IPAs) and use the centennial or simcoe for the dry hop.

Thanks, I think I will sub the black malt for Briess Blackprinz. And defiantly use the Warrior for the 60min and use the Simcoe for dry hopping.I just used Warrior for a IPA and had some left over so I thought I could fit it in somewhere. I'm going to the LHBS today, thanks for the help. I'll repost when I brew.

The recipe turned into a Dark IPA, and it turned out fantastic. It has great citrus notes, and finishes with a nice bitter taste. Just what I wanted. ABV finished at 6.6% Thanks for all the input

So you skipped any of the black malts? Will you do another black or did you decide you preferred the 80L dark?

Sounds good, but if you want it darker next time, carafa special III is the way to go.
