This is my first crack at creating a recipe for an IIPA. Going for a piny/citrus/pineapple hop character and a touch of nuttyness and caramel sweetness to go with the mostly pale malt background. I do want it to finish pretty dry and crisp.
I'm open to suggestions, so please leave comments. According to BeerSmith, this is what I have:
