Hey guys,

I'm planning on making an IPA for my next batch. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas for a Hop Rod Rye clone...?

If not, then does anyone have a good IPA recipe for a really good, in-your-face type of IPA? I'm looking for something citrusy and a good helping of bitter.

Thanks!

(oh, btw, i'm looking for an extract recipe.)
 
just do a search, there are tons of threads with Hop Rod Rye clones. It's very popular on this board! :rockin:
 
The problem is the search function won't pick up 3 letter words, so "Hop Rod Rye" is screwed!

Just search for "Humboldt" and look for a "Humboldt Hop Rod" thread and you should find the one that DeRoux posted, which is from a BYO article.

Actually that's the first thing I did, and the other posters were right... it was hard to find anything about hop rod rye...
 
drinking the extract version of the hop rod below as we type mine hit 8% it is goooooood.... sad day it is the bottom of the keg I have a feeling. tasty! another awesome one is sierra nevada celebration ale recipe below it is the "C" hop bomb - I brewed the extract below and will again. You have to do at least a partial mash on the hop rod but for the SNCA replace the 2 lbs. of 2-row with 1 lb of DME or 1.5 LME to keep up.
