Meltdown IPA

This was the last brew we got into the fermenter before our boiler/steam unit had a total meltdown, and kept us from brewing for an entire week…but now it's functioning again! This brew has an enticing copper color from the use of pale ale malt, and a solid malt presence up front, aided by Carapils. It has more bitterness than our Anti-Hero, which comes from a big Warrior addition at the beginning of the boil, and then we added a similar amount of GR Hull Melon at the end of boil. It is also dry-hopped with Melon and Hallertau Blanc in the fermenter. Herbal and canteloupe notes come through on the palate before the resiny bitterness finishes things off.
