    Looks good, and with that combo I am sure tastes top notch. Your synopsis?
    Cheers,

    • ^ My recipe
      Screenshot_3.jpg

      It's based off of the Sierra Nevada Resilience IPA:
      11 lbs (4 990 g)˜ 2 Row
      1.25 lb (567 g)˜ 60L

      1 oz (28 g)˜ Centennial 80 min
      1 oz (28 g)˜ Centennial 15 min
      1 oz (28 g)˜ Cascade 15 min
      .5 oz (14 g)˜ Centennial 0 min
      .5 oz (14 g)˜ Cascade 0 min

      US-05 Safale Yeast
      Dryhops 1/2 oz (14 g)˜ Cascade
      Dryhops 1/2 oz (14 g)˜ Centennial


      This is definitely a hop forward beer and the bitterness of the ±61 IBU's hits you on the first sip .... I'm all for it, altho the rest of the family are not lovers of this one's bitter citrus & grapefruit notes

      I find myself quickly wanting another sip seconds after swallowing the previous ... This is what they call a "basic old school" American IPA and I'm so impressed, that the next batch is already at the end of fermentation

      I omitted 1kg Pale for 1kg wheat in the second batch.

      • Jigsaw... It's not always a bad thing if those around you aren't keen on your beer and you love it

        My Christmas Spicy Pale Ale. Certainly not clearing up, but I am impressed. The spiciness and the bitter bite have mellowed and it's developed a nice persistent bright white head. I expected it would go there other way.

          • First attempt at a NEIPA... delicious, bags of stone fruit flavour, just enough bitterness to know it's an IPA.

              • Had my first NEIPA the other day. WOW. Such a nice beer! But I'll have to get a few more BIAB sessions before attempting this one. The specific beer had a 256g hop bill! [emoji45]

                        You should give it a try. I think hoppy beers are actually easier as the aromas and flavours can hide a lot of subtle flaws.

                          • Version 2 of my house Pale Ale. Recipe still in development.

                            Pleasant fruity (tropical) aroma and flavour from the dry-hops. Quite a strong backbone bitterness with dry finish. Perfectly clean fermentation and I cannot pick out any unwanted compounds. Carbonation definitely not flat however a tad low of what I would have wanted.. Slight haze, after 3 weeks in the bottle, it will be fine with a bit more time.

                            OG 1.042. FG 1.006. ABV 4.7%. IBU 31.7. 6.2 SRM.

                            Batch Size - 40L
                            7.5kg Pilsner Malt
                            400g Aromatic Malt
                            80g Crystal 40L
                            30g Caraffa II

                            CoJ water treated with Campden and Phosphoric acid for Mash Ph adjustment. 60m Boil. 12g J17 & 12g Southern Passion @ 40m. 12g J17 & 12g Southern Passion @ Flame-out. IBU adjusted for No-Chill.

                            13g J17 & 13g Southern Passion Dry-hopped for 5 days.
                            US-05 fermented at 16 degrees C.

                            Pale Ale 1.jpgPale Ale 2.jpg

                            With regards to hop combinations, I preferred the J17 on it's own vs the combo of J17 and Southern Passion. Unfortunately can't taste them side-by-side so relying on memory. The Southern Passion seems to be bringing a lot of tropical fruit flavours that doesn't pop as well as the J17 and not exactly what I have in mind for this beer. Though it's nice, I think this combo could work better for a NEIPA. Will then use significantly more hops though. My next variation on the Pale Ale might have only J17 again or some combination with a US hop as Dry-hop. Could increase the caramel malt also slightly and will change the Pilsner Malt to Pale Ale/Marris Otter - used the Pilsner mostly just because it was on hand.

                            Very drinkable beer but not a lawnmower beer as the IBU/GU is sitting at 0.75, making it fairly bitter. Wonder if the rest of you guys have the same opinion on the Southern Passion...?

                            • Digital IPA (yeastie boys clone)
                              Kegged yesterday, can do with a little more carbonation, but the 60IBU NZ hops are shining. 6.2 ABV
