- Very bitter IPA with a strong malt backbone. Not a perfect clone, but gets the idea.
I emailed Joe from Short's, asking him to help me with this recipe. Of course, Huma Lupa Licious is his baby, and I was sure he wasn't going to give me any specifics. But, this is what he did share in his reply:
Armed with this info, I put this recipe together. I brewed it about a month ago, and just poured the first pint from the keg last night. It's pretty nice, if you're a hop head like me. In fact, it might be the best brew I've made yet - if only because my process has been getting better with each batch. It didn't hurt that for inspiration, I had a keg of Short's Huma in the kegerator while formulating and brewing this batch.
Grain Bill:
11Lbs American 2 row Pale Ale 78.6%
1.5Lbs Crystal 60L 10.7%
1Lb Munich (Light) 7.1%
.5Lb CaraVienne 3.6%
Hops:
1.75oz Columbus (60 min.)
2oz Amarillo (30 min).
2oz Centennial (10 min).
1oz Cascade (0 min).
2oz Columbus (Dry hop)
2oz Cascade (Dry hop)
Water adjustments to match as close as possible Mosher's Ideal IPA.
Mash@152, 60 minutes.
If you try it, I hope you like it. It's worth it, IMO.
Hey Todd. I'm not sure if the home brew supply shops have enough hops available for purchase. But here goes. We shoot for a copper to light amber colored wort about 16.8 plato 4 to 5 different malts. Our Huma specs out at 125 IBU's (4 varieties). There are 4 kettle additions 60 min, 30 min, 10 min and flame out plus one massive dry hop. we dry hop at a rate of 1lb./31 gal. thats roughly equal to the first two kettle additions. Our total hops for huma average 3 lbs. per barrel (31 gal.). Good luck!
