Award-Winning American IPA Recipes - Brew Your Own. America’s favorite style of craft beer of late is pretty easy to name: IPA.
Those three letters can sell almost anything, market analysis tells us year after year. Over time, the IPA category has splintered further into a dozen sub-styles: Every color, every strength, every possible combination of yeast strains. Beyond hoppy, drinkers and brewers can seem to change their mind about what they want the style to be year after year. While this riffing on a common theme is far from new in beer, it can seem to affect IPAs far more than other styles. Maybe that’s because India Pale Ale has always had a hazy identity, full of twists and turns right from the start.

10 Award-Winning Homebrew Recipes. American IPAs Part 3 – Five hops that shaped your IPA – Pat's Pints. To finish my three part series on American IPAs (better late than never) we return to where it all started—to the bold, flavorful hop varieties born and bred in the USA.
Within the IPA genre it’s a big tent approach when it comes to the malt bill—East Coast, West Coast, Session IPA, Double IPA, Rye IPA, Black IPA—but for most people it’s just not an IPA without American hops (apologies to the anglophiles out there). Good luck finding a readily available American brewed IPA that doesn’t contain American hops. Even Ohio’s best-selling IPA, Commodore Perry IPA from Great Lakes, bills itself as a British-style IPA yet uses American bred Simcoe and Cascade hops. The concept of terroir is a big deal in the wine world, but at the risk of alienating any oenophiles who might stumble onto this blog let me point out that most of the wines produced in the US are based on Eurasian grape varieties—Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Chardonnay, etc. Brewing India Pale Ale Recipes IPA Beer Styles. India Pale Ale (or IPA) is a popular staple of homebrewers, microbrewers and hopheads who enjoy brewing some of the hoppiest beers on the planet.
This week we look at India Pale Ale beer recipes, how to brew an IPA recipe and its history. History According to Wikipedia, India Pale Ale traces its origins to the 17th century in England with the earliest pale ales. In fact, new malting techniques developed at the start of the 17th century using coke-fired as opposed to wood-fired kilns enabled production of the first pale malts, and subsequently paler beers.
One of the popular pale styles was a beer called October beer, which was highly hopped and designed to be stored for an extended period. George Hodgson, owner of Bow Brewery brewed a version of October beer that was popular among the traders of the East India Trading Company in the late 1700’s. Hops Chart. How Many Hop Varieties Are in the Best IPAs? - A Statistical Analysis. Would you be surprised to learn that historic 1800's IPAs were generally single hop beers?
Obviously, IPA brewing has changed a lot since then, but even as we're relearning how super-hopped and overcharged those original beers were, it's worth remembering that those IPAs were also usually SMaSH (Single Malt and Single Hop) beers, with East Kent Goldings defining the style for many decades. Was that because EKG was perceived as so clearly superior to the other varieties available at the time, or because they didn't have all the hundreds of exciting hop varieties we have today? Today, IPA recipe formulation is a very different story, with so many options and combinations of flavor-groups. Mild Ale Recipe - Brewing The Perfect Dark Session Beer.

Mild Ale: It's Not Dead Yet! - Brew Your Own. “Mild ale is the lowest of the low!”
“Mild ale is dead!” In Britain, where it originated, it is seen as weak, uninteresting and old-fashioned. It has the reputation of being a “cloth cap” beer, drunk by the sweaty working classes as they swarmed out of the factories and coal mines, eager to slake their thirst after long hours of hard physical labor. Mild is generally the lowest-strength beer in any brewer’s portfolio. It is often very difficult to find, especially in London and the South-East of England.
