Mangove Jack’s #1 IPA – Part 2 of 2

Mangrove Jack’s #1 IPA – 100% extract beer came out amazing. I really was crossing my fingers and Mangrove Jack’s delivered on a great tasting, dry hopped extract IPA! If you just want to try brewing this would be a great starter or if you are a seasoned brewer and just want to step back and see what this is all about, I would highly recommend it. Plus you can always modify it a bit to fit your tastes.
