Dank Side of the Moon IPA

Ok, so first: don't hate on the extract brew. My "moon series" is almost complete and every one has been extract so I won't stray away from it.

steeping grains are a big ol secret in amount, length of time, and varying types (sorry)

Nothing wrong with extract. Curious about the orange peel and cardamom but they don't necessarily clash.

What are you planning on fermenting with?

oh, I missed my yeast. It's my legacy Wyeast 1056 that has now been through quite a few brews
Cardamom will highlight the orange and citra, while adding a bit of an herbaceousness that seems to have hit the dank on the head.
