Default Re: any homebrewers?

I have always enjoyed the citrus flavors contributed by some hop strains. Have you brewed with orange peel before? I imagine orange peel takes it to a new level.

I got my orange peel from the brew store. With high-end ipa's, I've noticed a bit of a citrus flavor, I thought I'd heighten those flavors by mixing some in. If I was more prepared, I'd probably try using grapefruit... but not so much to overpower the beer.. just something for undertones.. maybe dry-hopping with grapefruit zest would do the same thing.

I'll see how it comes out. Half the fun of homebrewing is experimenting.
