Anyone have a Rye IPA recipe?

[JONNYROTTEN]

Drinking a sierra Nevada River Ryed IPA that was in a sample pack. Gotta say its pretty good. Not much in the way of recipes for a Rye IPA that I can find besides Dennys that seem to come up a lot....anyone have a good/great recipe they want to share?

 

[JONNYROTTEN]

It "almost" seems like adding rye to a regular IPA makes it a Ryed IPA. Is there truth to that or will C hops not work?

Not sure how this will show in the post but I thought this beer came out really nice. Got the recipe originally from https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=522728

Would definitely recommend giving it a shot.

This is the one I was referencing. Itts from 10 years ago almost. Sometimes things evolve for the better over the years. This seems to be the one everyone loves though

OOPS, didn't read carefully enough. Though I think Denny's would still rank among the best. Maybe just get creative and use it as a starting point and make some changes. I do a lot of my recipes that way. Start from a good recipe then change it up in a way that seems good. I have had some that were so-so after the change others were delightful.

IPA's are not really a style I have brewed much, and never with rye. But most of recipes I've seen contain some crystal malt. I think I would start with an IPA recipe and (for 5 gallons) substitute in a pound crystal rye malt, and add maybe a half pound of flaked rye.

 

[Calder]

Per Sierra Nevada WebSite:

ALCOHOL CONTENT 6.0% by volume
BEGINNING GRAVITY 14.0° plato
ENDING GRAVITY 2.9° plato
BITTERNESS UNITS 50
YEAST Ale yeast
BITTERING HOPS Bravo
FINISHING HOPS Chinook, Ekuanot
MALTS Two-row Pale, Rye, Caramel, Chocolate

If I had to guess, I think I'd start off with:
- 60% 2-row
- 30% Rye
- 7% C60
- 3% Chocolate

And of course, the obligatory Chico yeast (Wyeast 1056, WLP001, S-05, or culture straight from the bottle).

Denny's starts with 3 pounds of Rye malt. I like the taste of the Rye so I wouldn't bat an eyelash at upping that to 4 to 6 pounds..... And to update, maybe twice as much hops of a more recent variety.

Cool thanks! I got no chocolate flavor at all...looks like I need to crack another one and look for it...maybe more for color

My Rye IPA is a NELSON Rye IPA. One of my favorites, so happy to share. You have to like that winey Nelson flavor to like this. SN Ruthless Rye is very good but altogether different.

6.3% flaked rye
6.3% carapils
1.6% munich
0.5% (1-1.5oz in 5G batch) pale chocolate malt
rice hulls (to make up 100%)

RIMS:
104* for 20 min
130* for 10 min
152* for 40 min
168* for 15 min

24IBU Chinook for 90 min
18 IBU chinook for 15 min
1.5 oz Nelson for 5 min

Be very careful not to get air/oxygen into your beer.
