American Pale Ale

July 17th, 2009

This recipe originated from Abita Restoration Ale (one of Lyss’s favorites).   So this is my take on that beer.   It has become our “house” brew and I think Tom has brewed it several times also.

Ingredients:

10 lb Maris Otter Pale Malt
1 lb Cara-Pils
12 oz Crystal 40

Hops:

0.75 oz Cascade 5.5%AA 60 min
0.5 oz Centennial 10%AA 15 min
0.25 oz Centennial Dry

Yeast:

WLP060 – American Ale Yeast Blend  

I was lucky to have the opportunity to brew yesterday so Tom and I made a double batch that we split.   We changed a few things on this batch – the hopping schedule, added a little pils malt to replicate the original and yeast selection.   Yield: 5.5 gallons, OG: 1.058
