Hello, everyone, new to the forum as far as posting goes, but been lurking in here for all the juicy info you guys share!
Am set for my third brew and since summer is hitting I wanted to do a light, refreshing American pale ale with loads of hops for aroma and complex flavors and not too malty. Preferably around 5% and 40-45 IBUs (Brewdog's Dead Pony Club would be a nice example of what I am aiming for)
At the moment I can't do all grain, so only malt extract recipes work for me with partial mashing for the specialty grains.
Up to now I have brewed a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone and the second one was Dogfish 90 Minute IPA clone (which got bottled this weekend and taste was very promising)
My main problem is I can't get Amarillo, Simcoe or Centennial locally (but have 35gr of Amarillo and 91gr of Simcoe leftover) any other of the main hops I can get.
I looked in the APA recipes but most are all grain or not that hoppy.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you in advance
