I am planning on brewing a throwback, rich, malty DIPA for the holidays and was hoping to get your thoughts, especially on the Red-X and caramel malts. The CaraRed was used more for color. My initial thoughts were to use Caramunich I. I am intrigued by the red color but am targeting a deeper, warmer red to go along with the big body and forward hopping.
