I saw this topic posted on another website and thought it would be good to start it up here too.
What has worked for you?

i currently made this and think its my best one yet. ive only done 10 or so batches though, 8 AG. i decided to experiment and add many hops at the same time (something i dont see in many recipes). flavor is awesome and aroma is killer tropical fruit/dank. 5g batch, mashed at 152, IBU's were 75, dry hopped with .5 each of amarillo, centennial, simcoe, and 1.4oz of columbus.

Really enjoyed the West Coast IPA Green Flash recipe posted by Nathan from the CYBI here last summer or so. the hop schedule was filled with lots of hop bursts and I upped the dry hopping for deliciously strong summer IPA. Keg only lasted 10 days! Boo hoooooo.

You got a keg of IPA to last 10 days? Please, tell me how. I can get my APA to last 4 days, the Irish Red 3 days, but if I dare to put my IPA on tap when my friends are around... let's just say I better have something pre-chilled for the end of the night.

Sounds like a bunch of alcoholics to me!
