I made this twice last year. I couldn't believe how good it was. My mouth is watering thinking about making it again. One of my beer buddies told me that it was better than any commercial beer he'd ever tried. I don't know if I'd go that far, but I must admit, I see where he was coming from! The IBU seems a bit low on the calculation, my utilization may have been higher. This beer is similar to Sierra Nev Pale but resembles Three floyds Alpha king a bit more closely, from what I recall. A hoppy, and oddly relaxing brew!
