S-33 will give some Belgian flavor which may cover up all the hoppy goodness.
I'd switch to something like US-05 or Notty and drop the chocolate and you'd have a lovely IPA.
It's a bit of a waste using Simcoe at a 60min addition. Too good for bittering in my opinion. It will work but its much nicer used all late.
That's just my thoughts on the recipe.

I only used S33 once and I'll never use it again. The beer it made reminded me of shite kit homebrew I made 20yrs ago in my student days.

You can't edit a post after a few days. It's the law  :P

What temperature are you going to ferment the Belgian yeast?

nigel_c

Belgian Amber IPA. I like it. I think a BJCP judge would explode trying to classify it. Should be tasty.

After about 2 weeks threads become un-editable! Why? No Idea! Must be a forum thingy!
Remember: The Nationals are just round the corner - time to get brewing

At the moment Garry i only have a fermwrap on it until it kicks off which should be soon,then i am going to wrap it in an electric blanket and get it to about 25 celsius. ;D

Not sure where the amber ipa is coming from( i assume you mean because of the hops ?) but the BJCP can feck off lol  ;D I sure hope it will be tasty,i am going to try and bottle maybe a ten or so out of this for sampling,some are already destined for foreign parts :P

I said Belgian amber IPA because it'll be a dark amber to light red. ( 36 EBC) brewed with Belgian yeast strain and hoppped with Hipster American hops like Simcoe and Falconer's Flight to 54 IBU.  :D

Have you worked out your expected FG? I've never used any of the Mangrove Jack yeasts and am planning on doing a Belgian Stout so am interested in any results you have using it.

I have not used this particular MJ yeast before but i hear it is high flocculating one,however since OG is so high at 1086 i would be expecting an FG around 1015-1020 at most. ;D

Sultanas will kick off fetmentation again and undo a lot of the dry hoppy goodness.
