Operation: Sixpoint Resin

[Asta]

Randy, no regrets, but it is a strong hoppy beer so maybe I'd play with the bittering. The original is hoppy too, however. Tasting them side by side I'd say this recipe has a little more bite than the original, but the flavor is close. A little darker than Six Point, too, so maybe I'd lighten it a couple SRM. All in all a unique beer, a close clone, popular with my drinking friends who prefer a beer with strong hop flavor.

Excellent, thank you for the reply! I'm a heavy hop lover so I'm sure I'll love the bitterness. I might skip the crystal 60L and up the 40L a bit. I'll see what BeerSmith thinks.

I just recently won a Sixpoint Resin brewing kit from Sixpoint on Facebook. Just received it today. It's for a 1 gallon batch. It doesn't have an ingredients list, but I can tell you what I can decipher here...

Pilsen Light DME (which is 99% Pilsen Malt and 1% Carapils)
Dextrose
Flaked Oats
C60 ? (That one I'm not sure of. It's mixed in with the Flaked Oats. I need to weight it and dial it in on Beersmith to see what it actually is)

Warrior - Bittering
Simcoe & Chinook - 25 minutes
Mosaic & Centennial - 15 minutes
Cascade, Simcoe & Mosaic - Flame

US05.... I believe

I'll do my best to do a full conversion once I'm able to weigh all the hops, grains, convert LME to All Grain, etc. Report back soon.

Hi,
I know its a very late post to this thread but a beer kit I just brewed comes very close too and with some tweaking might be made to taste exactly like Resin. The kit was an all grain from Northern. The name of it was Cascade Mountains West Coast Imperial IPA. Now I realize that it is an Imperial and that Resin is a double but they are very similar in color, flavor and mouthfeel. I am going to tweak it a bit with my mash in temp and drop the sugar by half a pound to see if I can get it spot on.

Imperial and double IPA are the same thing.

Well i learned something today. Thanks for the info.

David, thank you for sharing this recipe! I brewed a batch during my holiday break, and the first tasting is very promising. I have modified it a little bit for various reasons. For those interested, it's here:

Has anyone been working on a clone of this recently or we have some new information?
Maybe the brewer has revealed everything in the last few years

I had this about 4 years ago when I was in NY.
I would love to brew something similar.
I did some checks on the intenet and the hops and grain bill vairy quite a lot on the different attempts I found - even in this thread.
