Batch 197, Hoppily Ever After

The recipe formerly known as "Smooth IPA", and now known as Hoppily Ever After, since I made this for Libby and Aaron's wedding and since I got the hops from the decorations at their wedding. It's a nice all Chinook IPA, really smooth and nice.

10 gallon batch

25 lb 2-row
1.5 lb wheat

Mashed at 156F.

0.5 oz Chinook, FWH
0.5 oz Chinook, 90 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 80 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 70 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 60 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 50 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 40 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 30 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 20 min
2 tsp Irish Moss, 15 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 10 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 5 min
1.0 oz Chinook, 0 min

Smooth!

Wyeast 1272, reused from previous batches.

OG: 1.060 actual

May 2, 2017, put on tap to carbonate.

May 9, 2017, I've been drinking this for a few days, the first taste is definitely peaches, like nice, ripe, juicy peaches. There is no way that these hops are Chinook -- no pine at all, just peaches.
