I am a huge fan of NEIPAs, but after finding them hard to bottle and keep O2 exposure from turning them brown I decided to try something different. I started with looking for a solid malt base for the recipe and added some of my favorite hops. You will note that there is no dryhop. I find that by the time the bottles carb up, a lot of the dry hop aroma has subsided. Not dryhopping also limited oxygen exposure until bottling time.

I am really liking this and am pretty proud of how it came out being my first recipe I came up with that actually came out good.
