Rye IPA - hop recipe suggestions

[krockett]

Hi lads,

Inspired by Rising Sons new Rya IPA I'm going to brew one this weekend. The grain bill will be 4 kg Pale malt, 1 kg Munich, 1 kg Rye, 400g Caramunich. I have the following hops in my freezer. Any suggestions on a hop bill using any or all of these?:

Simcoe Leaf, pellet
Amarillo, pellet
Nelson Sauvin, pellet
Ahtanum leaf, pellet
Chinook leaf pellet,
Columbus leaf, pellet
Bravo pellet,
Magnum leaf

Thanks in advance!

How did this go?

It was ok - maybe a bit too much going on. Just massive hop flavour - not exactly what i was looking for. Rye hasn't met my expectations tbh - did a clone of another famous  rye since and that didnt have the spicy bit I keep reading about and was expecting.

This was nothing like Rising Sons Survivor Rye IPA and I don't think the rye was what grabbed me about that - their replacement rye IPA is missing that loveliness. Think it might have been loads of munich or something - tried this with my last batch.

For what its worth this was the recipe:

Jaysus that's some amount of hops in that brew! Near enough 17oz overall? Wowzas!!!!

I hadnt noticed 

With IPAs I'd normally do a 3-4 oz dry hop, 2-3 hop stand and an ounce or two FWH.
