The kit from AHS is a pretty good replication. I have made it a few times. Have one in the keg right now.

Sorry I am new to brewing, what is AHS?

One of the best home brew shops in the country.

I've never had a bad kit from there.

Call AHS and they were not sure what beer was a close replica of Flying Dog Pale ale.

If you go to the website they have an alphabetical A-Z listing of clone recipes. Pretty much any commercial beer you could think of. Many have comments from people who previously brewed them and would like to share their results. I have never been disappointed with any of their recipes. Here are all the flying dog clones.

Thanks for the info.

I am surprised to see they offer "base grain" even with the extract options. How are those base grains used? just stepped as the specialty grain (which I guess is the American crystal 120L) or would they need to be mashed-stepped? If they need to be mashed-stepped, is it really an extract recipe?

What grains can they use?

Thanks.

I order from AHS, there is really no mashing involved(partial mash? semantics?). Just steep in the bag they send it in.

Thanks for the answer.

Did the bag just have Crystal 120L? Or was it a mix with pale malt?

I've never ordered that clone, but usually they just put specialty grains in the bag(so just the crystal) and the rest is LME. If you choose the mini-mash option I think it comes with all of the grains, but I believe you have to purchase your own bag(though I've never ordered a mini-mash since Im pretty new to brewing).

Is the correct kit "AHS Orange IPA (14B) - All Grain"?

The links dont take me to the exact recipe listing.

Thanks!

Having never tried the Flying Dog you are trying to replicate, I think this is what you are looking for.

This is the Extract version where you steep the 120l per instructions, then add the LME I believe. It has been a while since I did an Extract recipe, so just use the instructions and go for it.

They have another called Double Dog, so I am not sure which is the right one. Either way, extract versions, if I remember right, you steep the specialty grains and then add the LME or DME and bring to a boil. Be careful of boil over, that happened to me on my first extract brew. It was not a happy day when my wife found out. LOL.
