Bursting

The second beer we brewed on our vacation was a our Duck Creek pale ale. I decided that we would change it up a little this time and make it hop burst style. 

Keep the relative IBUs the same. Except to get to the correct level, add ALL of the hops in once charge at the 10 minute mark. 
We went with:
9 lbs- 2 row
.5 lb carapils
.5 lb 20L crystal 
.5 aromatic
1 lb corn syrup 
1 oz summit @10
3 oz cascade @10
05 yeast
154 mash
Yea we changed the base a bit. I felt the original ended a bit more body, but didn’t want it to sweet. 
All those hops going in at once definatly puts a hop aroma through the house. 
Might have got a little trub into the fermenter as well
