Thanks. I am starting with a basic IPA. I want to know how close to the mark I can get, while learning the ropes. My greater plan is to make a beer with adzuki bean, which is often used in Chinese food, especially desserts. Chinese beers are boring, almost all light lagers. My wife is Chinese, and I want to create a beer that has some Chinese character to it. The bean is instantly recognizable, and as it seems to give a red color when fermented, I think it could be a great to have a red Chinese beer. I will probably go with an ale, and first try adding it in the wort boil.
