English IPA

February 18th, 2009

Chris wanted to brew so I told him OK if he goes outside and cleans the pot!  (It was really cold on Presidents Day – 2/16/09). 

Since this was a spur of the moment decision to brew, I put this together from things around the house.   This recipe probably isn’t true to English standards but close enough that the bones are there to hold up nicely.

Still need a good name for this recipe!

Ingredients:

12.25 lb Maris Otter Pale Malt
8 oz Wheat Malt
8 oz Crystal 40
6 oz Crystal 80
4 oz Special B
4 oz Aromatic
   
  Single Infusion Mash @ 152F – 60 Minutes
OG: 1.065

Hops:

1.9 oz Challenger 6.1% AA 60 min
1.5 oz Fuggles 5.0% AA 10 min
1.6 oz Kent Goldings 4.8% AA 0 min

 

Yeast:

WLP002 – English Ale 67F

    How about “Bare Ass Cold” Pale Ale for the name of this creation?
