It's funny reading back on this thread and the Drez hate for 1450. But he seems back in the saddle now.
LOL, I have a package of 1450 being delivered today.

thinking of making this again but with some changes:
1) use lactic acid instead of acid malt
2) up the pale ale malt a little bit. like maybe 6lbs.
3) 30 min boil
4) I'll have to change the hops up b/c I only have a few oz of chinook until my 2017 hops come in. I was thinking some mosaic in the mix might be good. I'll still probably use the chinook I have though. And also some citra, simcoe and cent (also low on simcoe and cent so figure I'll use them up)
5) no hop stand (too lazy)
6) no primary dry hop, only post fermenation
7) I'll repitch some wyeast 1450 from my batch of stout I have going right now
other than that, practically the same beer!
I think this plan will be fine. Mosaic will work good in here.

I've done something similar before and I think it was good but I didn't put any tasting notes in.

so I ended up dry hopping the first keg with 1oz each of simcoe, citra and chinook and 2oz of mosaic. seems like it's going to be good but still kind of flat (carbonation wise) right now.

oh man. this iteration of this recipe is top notch. part of it could be there is a good amount of ted's awesome hops in it.

Can't go wrong with chinook, Simcoe, Citra and Mosaic!

all my favs. although I have to say the straight columbus in denny's ripa had a very classic IPA taste to me that I have been missing. too bad I'm almost out of columbus but I guess I know what to order from ted next year.
I've been thinking of making a beer with a lot of late chinook. not sure what would go best for that. something amber maybe?
