Hi All,

I have a few leftover hops and bits lying around and thought would put them to use. I wanted to make quite a hoppy beer but something round the low 4% side.

This is the first time i have used brewing software to work this out and designing a recipe in general.

Would this beer be too weak for the amount of hops? Please let me know if it would work or any pointers.
