This is pretty much Version 1 but I took the advice of a friend of mine and bumped up the Caramel Malt a bit. Not by much, just a little. I don’t think I bumped it up enough honestly. Not much different than Version 1. Still a decent beer but not what I’m looking for. While I love Citra, for Version 3 (which I’ll post down the line) I took Citra out completely. Mostly because I couldn’t find any but also because I wanted to go with a totally different hop profile just to mess around. I’ll probably introduce Citra back into my next Version but only use it at burn out and some in the dry hopping.
