This beer was awesome. I will be making it again. The most popular of the available homebrews at my Christmas party ��
 
Just to make sure I've got the boil additions straight (because I think you use the opposite of the standard boil time notation, which is listing the time left in the boil rather than the time elapsed):


  • 1L Pineapple Juice @ 60 min
  • 1.25 oz Cascade @ 60 min
  • 1 oz Centennial @ 60 min
  • 0.5 oz Perle @ 30 min
  • 1 Pineapple (cubed) @ 15 min
  • 0.25 oz Cascade @ 5 min
  • 0.25 oz Centennial @ 5 min
  • 2 oz Cascade @ dry - 14 days

Is that correct?
 
Can you double check your grain bill too? 14.5 lbs of grain give me about 1.070. That's a long way off of your 1.054
 
Hi I'm new and had a question. How would I get the type of extract to use for this recipe? that's what I've been starting with using kits from NB. Thanks in advance and I apologize if this is a repeat question

Often a recipe is made with pale extract, with only a small amount of dark or amber extract used for color.
