I've recently brewed a Jaipur style ale, the IBU's on that particular recipe came to 56 IBU. Jaipur is a particular favourite of mine. :beer:

Jaipur is Pale malt a little vienna with Chinook, Centennial and ahtanum hops.

Scarer's admitted her Bombay was similar but had to substitute hops.

I'd have to do some serious hop substitution if I made that...
