AHS Summer Crisp IPA (14B) - EXTRACT Homebrew Ingredient Kit

Great easy drinking IPA.

I brewed the LME version and spruced it up by taking the existing recipe and adding Mosaic hops ( .5 oz last 5 of boil and 1 oz in dry hopping) and added the alcohol boost (IMO a good IPA should be mid 6% ABV). IT CAME OUT INCREDIBLE! The flavor is light and citrusy with amazing bitterness (IBU's around 42) and my ABV came out to 6.6%. I feel the aroma department is my only letdown, it has a very mango like aroma no doubt from the Mosaic. The flavor is good n citrusy, like a grapefruit almost but very hoppy and piney too. This is almost my perfect IPA. It blows away everything in my fridge except maybe real Ale 4 squared. DEFINITELY pick this baby up! Mini mash is my next version of this for sure to add more complexity to the body

it's the first time I've tried this beer. Brewed in March, tapped in mid June... this is perfect for a summers afternoon/evening. Light and slightly hoppy, this will be on tap year round at my house!

This was my first brew. I was a bit worried about it coming out too hoppy but it turned out not to be the case. It turned into a perfect, nice, smooth and light summer ale. I had no idea you could brew better tasting beer than you can buy. It's worth the effort. I'm hooked.

I brewed this as a liquid extract recipe. I added a pound of light DME and dry hopped with 2 oz of whole leaf cascade hops. It is a beautiful thing! One of the best I have brewed to date.
