Thanks for the input. I agree about late hop additions and was wondering that myself, but I held back since I wasn't sure how much of that the relatively weak malt bill could stand up to. I am debating about dry hopping for that reason. I love the aroma, that's for sure. If I do I will probably...

I have a ton of Simcoe and Amarillo in the freezer and I want to make a tasty IPA that's not too heavy. I love super hoppy IPA's but it's nice to have something that's a bit more session-able for your everyday brew. I actually set out to make a hoppy pale ale, but at the last minute broke down...

Has anyone tried this recipe with Kolsch yeast? I was originally planning to do a Kolsch so I ordered the Wyeast version but then I came across this recipe and decided to do the blonde instead since it sounds so good. I don't have Nottingham on hand though and I'm afraid to mess up the recipe...

Have you brewed this yet? I brewed a Ranger-inspired brew yesterday. I tweaked the grain bill a bit to be more interesting to my tastes but kept the hops, IBU, ABV and estimated color in line with the original. I also read on the NB site that they use a light and a dark caramel in the malt...

Thanks, Xiang! I took your advice and tweaked the hop schedule. I also decided to add 1/2 lb of dextrine malt at the last minute. This is what I ended up brewing. Smelled amazing! This is my first AG batch and my first with temperature control. Its an understatement to say I can't wait to...

I'm brewing this Saturday and thought I'd better throw the recipe I came up with out to you guys who actually know what you're doing. My brewing experience has yet to catch up with my brewing obsession and brewing reading/self-education. :) Ranger-Inspired IPA Amount Item Type % or IBU...

Looks great! I can't wait to brew these beers. At what temp did you ferment the Fat Tire clone? Would it be the same temp for the brown bastard?

I also LOVE that beer and was blown away when I first tried it on tap. I've never seen it in bottles and only know of one place that has it on tap here in Cincinnati. I contacted the brewery and this is what they said. I'd love to have some more advice on what to do with the info, since I'm...

Anybody out there have one of these you haven't used in a long time? How about you sell it to a poor grad-student/homebrewer!! Haha

Has anyone tried dry-hopping for a Fat Tire clone? From my research, Fat Tire is dry-hopped but none of the kits call for it. Also, there seems to be a lot of confusion about what kind of hops to use. I've see recipes calling for northern brewer, saaz, williamette, fuggles, cascade, galena...
