You really want to burn through some Cascade?

You can easily sub Victory for the carapils if you want a bit of a biscuit note, and I think this beer can also lend to a higher gravity. I attached the base recipe, but you can tweek it to your liking. Note - a pound of hops is actually going to leave you a couple ounces short for 10 gallons!

I've brewed the epic pale ale clone before and it was delicious. Extremely hoppy but not too bitter and very complex for a single hopped beer. Good luck.

Brewed this up yday, I can't help but think that it is going to be AMAZING.

12 gallon batch at %80 efficiency
17 pounds two row
2 pound munich
1 pound C40
1 pound C60
½ pound victory
6 oz C120
WLP001
Mash at 154
OG = 1.050
Expected FG = 1.010
.40 oz Columbus at 60 minutes
1# of cascade whole cone hops at 3 minutes.
I did a hot whirlpool for about 5 minutes as well before I activated the chiller.
I cold pitched a two liter WLP001 starter, active fermentation/full krausen in about 12 hours.
Chugging away at 70 degrees.
Appears to be perfectly orange/copper

Considering a chinook or columbus dry hop??

Yep….a pound of hops for finishing. The beer only has about 30 IBU but I bet it’s nice and hoppy!!

Update -

Final Gravity = 1.010
Color is deep copper, could easily pass as american amber ale
This grain bill and hop schedule will be my go to for hoppy APA
1.010 leaves just enought sweetness to compliment the huge hop flavor from the Cascade

Tasting -

The munich and three types of crystal blend to leave a nice/rich caramel/malt flavor that adds the perfect compliment to the intense hop flavor and aroma. However, the beer is not overly bitter. Firmly bittered yes, but not even as bitter as something like sierra nevada pale ale. The hop flavor and aroma suprised me. Sure you get the grapefruit, but there is also a spicy dankness to it. Almost like these cascades resemble a fruitier, softer columbus. All in all, when rating my forays into american pale ale, I would give this my highest marks for the style.
