Hop Scare IPA

This is one of the better beers I have made...granted IPA's are a little more forgiving than some beers but multiple testers told me they would have thought it was a craft brew from a store.  Gotta love the American Flag bottle caps, couldn't pass those up.  Basic recipe with some dry hopping action...



O.G.  1.064
F.G.   1.013
ABV:  6.7%

boiled the grains for 20 minutes and added the extract. 
1oz of Yakima Magnum hops for 60 minutes
1oz of Amarillo hops for 30 minutes
2oz of cascade hops for last 5 minutes

2 Weeks in the primary and then add 2 oz of whole leaf cascade hops for some dry hopping for 2 more weeks then bottled.  only added 4 oz of sugar because it was slightly lower amount than usual (4.25gallons)
