Nobody wants to tackle this one?
I am pretty certain they used Centennial in the Dry Hops at least, but not too large of an addition. It has a pretty distinct flavor to it. What do you think about Ahtanum? I have used Cascade in a single hop before and it didn't have the character I noticed in the ADIPA. That's why I was going with a different hop for the flavor and aroma. probably going to buy the stuff sunday and brew monday (going extract for time purposes).
So is this one on your schedule for this week or did you already go for it?
I am actually brewing it right now. I am doing the extract version with 2oz of Briess Chocolate Malt used for color adjustment. When used in small amounts, it tends to act as a Caramel malt as far as flavor goes and I don't think this will be enough to get the full Chocolate Malt flavor, but I don't know exactly where that cutoff is yet (not enough experimentation with it yet). Just opened the Amarillo leaf hops from Hop Union (10.4%AA) and they smell amazing. There is a very mild citrus aroma to them and a sweet, floral aroma dominates. 17 minutes until flavor hop addition. I'll keep you posted on how it develops. Also using WLP862 Cry Havoc as Ale since that's been my house strain for about 6 months now.
Awesome! Can't wait.
Do you feel that after smelling the Amarillo it matches?
The citrus is definitely a character.
Hmmm. I have a two hearted in the secondary right now. I was going to dry hop with the centennial..maybe i should grab some amarillo instead? or do both.
This is good news!
I will make this as my next batch.
I just want to know as things progress if the recipe needs any changes.
Im looking to brew next weekend but i can wait for instructions

I picked up another 6er of all day. It definitely doesn't have a lot of the Amarillo aromatics as what you get from the draft but man, I love this brew. I want to clone this too for a nice crisp summer beer.
I am picking up a hint of rye spice in the malt bill. Have you brewed with rye before? When yours is ready, do a side by side comparison and see if you detect any more spice character in All Day.
I found that doing side by sides is the best way to pick out new flavors to re-adjust a clone.
Cracked one open yet?
Cmon!
