This is an American IPA that will have a relatively modest gravity and an immodest hop character derived entirely from a single hop variety. Chinook hops have long been used by US brewers for bittering additions, but their intense aroma and flavor have caught on only recently.
My high school reunion is coming up next month and I won't be able to attend since I'm working on a project that night, so I decided to name this IPA after the city I grew up in, well partially at least lol..
