    If you're looking for recipe feedback, you'd be better off posting this in the main homebrewing forum. You'll also get more responses if you convert the grain to lbs, the hops to oz, the volume to gal, and use periods as the decimal point.

    I recently had a lactose IPA (Calamansi Milkshake from Tired Hands) that was delicious and had a very interesting mouthfeel for an IPA. They definitely used a truckload of lactose in it. Probably north of 1lb/5gal, or at least 0,96 kg in a 40 L batch. I would guess it was closer to 1,5 kg though. It was incredible at first, but I struggled to finish my second pint. Proceed with caution unless you've had lactose in IPAs before and enjoyed them.
