I have brewed this beer twice, increasing the hop bill substantially the second time around and I am still disappointed at the lack of hop taste. It smells really good and hoppy, and it is fairly bitter, but the hop flavor like that of Dale's Pale Ale is just not there.
The beer is based on the Dale's Pale Ale clone here on HBT.
I am doing a 3 gallon BIAB.
Recipe:
4.5 lbs maris otter
2 lbs munich malt
.25 crystal 60l
Hop bill:
Northern Brewer .5 oz 60 minutes
Cascade .5 oz 30 minutes
Columbus .5 oz 30 minutes
Centennial .5 oz 15 minutes
Cascade 1 oz 5 minutes
Columbus 1 oz 5 minutes
