Much messing about with your water profile compared to an IPA.

I've gone with http://threegodsbrewing.com/2016/07/17/brew-day-and-fermentation-ne-style-ipa-2/

have you priced up the ingredients and hops in that recipe ;D

Galway Bay are releasing a take on this style, it's called 'I ♥️ NE', not sure if it's available yet...I've been keeping an eye on Brew Dock

I'd say its long drunk up at this stage, I had it in their Beertraders in Dun Laoghaire about 3 weeks ago.

They had Trouble's Crosswalk's East Coast IPA* on at the same time. The 'I ♥️ NE' was more tropical fruit compared to a more citrus note from Trouble, both v tasty.

Still really don't like the look of the style though; smoothie milkshake anyone?

* pet peeve - wrong name, should be called a North East or Vermont IPA . An East Coast is a less hoppier, maltier version of a West Coast IPA; a mix between an English & West Coast IPA. The newer NE/Vermont styles are a totally different kettle of fish (or should that be hops😉)

Was the beer tannic from putting staight flour in, plain I'm guessing?
Did you use a water profile and mental dry hopping?
It wasn't tannic. I've used 300g of hops for dry hopping for the craic before and whilst it was definitely hazy from the high amount of hops it wasn't milky which is what the style should be. For the pure milk white effect the flour worked and I'd like to try that Vermont yeast next time as seemingly that should play a factor too.

Yeah it was €32 before delivery and I'm using Northern Brewer for bittering. White labs need a boddington yeast

You missed it, maybe 2 weeks ago. It was probably the only one of their new stuff that was worth trying again. 10/10

I met Hop Bomb in Manchester and he told me how much that East Coast IPA cost to make, cough!

It's one special they did, Oreos for their next one!
Danny Conn made an interesting comment about the whole flour thing and pointed out that flour would fall out of suspension with any kind of cooling so in his opinion it's a myth.

Brewdog are tweeting about brewing one of those milkshake IPA's with omnipollo today

6 days in keg, this is one of the best beers I've made. I'll be trying it again with a Vermont yeast or Boddinton's strain.

Blind tasting in GCB tonight but which one will win?

http://brulosophy.com/2016/11/21/the-impact-of-flaked-oats-on-new-england-ipa-exbeeriment-results/

Another interesting result from Brulosophy. I think I'd still use the oats, the oat beer looks much more appealing.

A little under but yeah I wouldn't be without them
