NKOTB IPA

I brewed this beer with intentions on having it ready by the time the new kid arrived home, but I got busy and haven't started the dry hopping yet, plus this sucker bubbled well over two weeks. I plan to do the dry hopping today. I did this IPA more to use up some hops I had in the freezer. I tasted it, and so far it tastes awesome. The dry hops should finish this off to make it perfect. I have a similar recipe that I brewed on Big Brew Day that I'll be posting later, I think it's destined I tweak this recipe to perfection and name it after the new kid on the block!
