Lovin'Roxy too

Yeah baby..... What a beer,just finished a sixer(while brewing Edwort's Haus Ale) that a friend left(he said it was too hoppy)Huh-Really??? I'm hooked ! I really like the beers being put out by Magic Hat. According to their bottle it's a seasonal brew. I like the crisp hoppiness of this brew.
I was just getting on to post the same question.What do you all think ?
I was hoping to find an A.G. recipe.
I just got done checking the Northern brewer catologue and found the "Tongue Splitter ale" thought to myself ,the description sounds much like the Roxy tastes.
Who's got our A.G. Roxy recipe ??? Thanks in advance . Shane

I checked out the MH webpage
|
|
Magic Hat's webpage provides this information. While I personally think their beers are subpar, and not worthy of drinking, let alone cloning I'm still happy to share the information since everyones palate, and taste are unique.
Good luck and enjoy!
Roxy Rolles- Hopppy Amber ale
SG:1.058
ABV: 5.8
IBU:35
SRM 34.2
Yeast: English Ale (Probably Ringwood, as that is what they use for all their other beers IIRC)
Malt:
Pale
Crystal
Dark Crystal
Hops:
Brewers Gold, simcoe, Simcoe
If I were to hazard a guess the Brewrs gold is the Kettle hop. While Brewers Gold and Simcoe could be used for middle addtion, Simcoe late addition, and dry hopping.
Have fun!

While I'm not a HUGE fan of Magic Hat's beers, this is pretty damn good. Seems like more than 35 IBUs, it's reasonably aggressive without being over-the-top. Decent malt backbone. I bet you could get away with sneaking a little Munich in there (along with the dark crystal) for some color and balance.

Tried my had at it in ProMash, but how can SRM 34.2 be viewed as amber? Seems black to me.

It's definately on the red side of amber, but not black (or even close).

Maybe my promash is screwed up, but 34.2 is showing as black. I've found this on a few different sites:
Yellow
light 2.0 - 3.0
medium 3.0 - 4.5
deepstraw/gold 4.5 - 6.0
deep gold 6.0 - 7.5
Amber
light 7.5 - 9.0
copper 9.0 - 11
red/brown 11 - 14
Brown
light 14 - 17
medium 17 - 20
dark - light black 20 - 25
Black
start of full black >25
