I picked up an Amber kit from a LHBS that has specialty grains for steeping, 6lbs of LME, 1oz of UK Challenger at 60min and 1oz of Ahtanum at 5min. Fermented with WLP001.
As I was brewing I thought I'd experiment a bit by adding 1/2oz of Glacier at 30min and 1/2oz of Cascade at 15min along with an extra 1lb of LME.
How much do you think I altered it? Too hoppy? Still considered an Amber or did I push it into a different category?
Im sure it will turn out just fine and tasty but I thought I'd get your thoughts as it bubbles away in my basement....
