Here you go!
Finally carbed properly! Sorry about the terrible cellphone pic! :(

This brew has a ton of pineapple flavor upfront and quite a bit of orange/tangerine
at the finish.
It's a sweetish beer, because I really don't use alot of hops for a bittering charge.
Everything I read about the Comet hops was they were extremely bitter, but I'm finding
they aren't nearly as bitter as advertised.
Also, I made an error on my 10 minute additions, they were only supposed to be 1/2 oz
but, trying to run from memory, I added an ounce, SO... it bumped the IBU's up to 94.7!
I don't think I will brew anything higher than that! :p

A ton of pineapple flavor upfront you say. Quite a bit of orange/tangernine at the finish you say. Sound exactly like my favorite IPA's.

Looks like a great recipe, and the picture looks yummy.

Brilliant! And it's almost sessionable. As I said before, never heard of Comet but have head of Glacier and never used them. I'm really into tropical this time of year.

Yeah, I'll agree - that sounds really tasty. Tropical, fruity IPAs are what I am drinking right now, with the occasional dank thrown in.

LOL! It fit at the time! :lol:

I'm not that good with naming my beers, but eventually it'll get a new moniker!
