Signing Day IPA

I'm stretching a little for post titles, you'll understand shortly.  Today is the first day of the regular signing period for college basketball, but that is a total coincidence with my signing day.  The big news is that I am signing a lease today!  Yes, after months of post with no real information or new, today I have some real news.  To keep with the overall theme of secrecy and not giving any real information, most of the details about the future location will be reserved for a following post.  I will reveal that I take possession of the building on May 1st, so the fun is really about to begin.  Now on to today's brew:

Signing Day IPA
Style: American-Style IPA 
Malt: American 2-Row, Crystal, Honey Malt, Munich
Hops: Amarillo, Centennial, Columbus
ABV: ~ 6.5%

This is the second of a series of IPA's for a tasting to be held at the brewery location.  Similar to the last, but different.  Still working on names for the different beers, mostly because I am torn on which direction to go with the overall branding of Payette Brewing.  Originally I was planning on focusing on the mountains, rivers and outdoor sports.  Now I have this  fascination with doing some sort of Idaho Cowboy theme, the tough part is doing it in a classy way and not coming across as "hick."  Once I get some initial concepts, I will share them to get your opinions.

Gotta Hop
