Pregnant IPA:

I made this recipe for the first time right after my wife and I found out she was pregnant with our daughter. My wife is not a big IPA fan so this was the perfect opportunity to get a nice hoppy beer on tap. The LHBC guys were favoribly disposed to this beer, and I have made it a couple times in the last year, and will probably do so again.
