IPA
First beer mashed in my 12 gallon cooler mash-tun. Also my first experience brewing with Canada Malting 2-row.
Willamette addition at 30 minutes is a last second change from Centenial and Willamette in attempt to break up the Centenial influence and allow the Amarillo at 10 min to come through.
