How is this IPA recipe?

[Thirsty Mallard]

I am brewing my first IPA, and I want to use Amarillo hops. I revised an existing recipe a bit. Any thoughts?

PS - If you are in the Fantasy Football Leauge and I have to send you beer, you will probably be getting a few bottles of this!

All Amarillo IPA.

Looks good to me, You might try adding another hop during one of your adds, to get some different flavors going.

I am not an expert, only got a couple IPA's under my belt, just my two cents worth

Looks like a possible grapefruit bomb imho. Send me a bottle or two when its done.

I thought I would give the update on this beer... just in case anyone was curious/cares. I just force carbonated it today, so I gave her a taste before hand...

Immediately the aroma of grapefruit overwhelmed the nose. Not in a bad way, in a very refreshing, interesting, hoppy wonder kind of way.

As HH pointed out, I was afraid of this being a grapefruit bomb, and it does have a significant character in the taste... but it is so damn good! The bitterness is perfect and refreshingly citrusy. I have a feeling this will be just perfect once carbonated and aged for a few weeks!

My first IPA and if I can figure out how to work my counterpressure filler, this will be my first competition entry! I have to say I was very pleased with it!
