Beer Style: IPA Family
The Hammer Rye IPL
Inspired by Jack’s Abby Brewing RIPL Effect, this was my attempt to brew something akin with a rye edge coming out from behind the bold hop profile. Jack’s Abby used triticale, but I used a rye malt in my brew, and also used the hops I had on hand.
Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA clone
This innovative IPA employs Dogfish Head’s method of adding hops continuously over the entire boil. Showcasing a big US Northwest hop bill, 60-Minute is the session beer sister of 90-Minute IPA.
Stone Ruination IPA (1.0) clone
This recipe is for the original formulation of Ruination, a West Coast IPA that defined the style with resinous pine, a big malt backbone, and a lovely orange amber color.
Stone Brewing Co.’s IPA clone
According to Stone Brewing Co.’s website, “. . .this golden beauty explodes with tropical, citrusy, piney hop flavors and aromas, all perfectly balanced by a subtle malt character. This crisp, extra hoppy brew is hugely refreshing on a hot day, but will always deliver no matter when you choose to drink it.”
Wheat IPA
This recipe for Wheat IPA is a web-only recipe from Jamil Zainasheff’s “Style Profile” on specialty IPAs.
Diamond Knot Brewery’s IPA clone
According to Diamond Knot’s website, “This is where it all started, our traditional PNW IPA. Columbus and Super Galena hops impart grapefruit and a hint of pine with a balanced maltiness.”

American Rye IPA
“The recipe was inspired by a fellow brewer. The spicy character of the rye really makes this beer as it balances beautifully with the strong malt and hop flavors.”
Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA clone
Sierra Nevada designed this beer to showcase their innovative “hop torpedo,” which is a dry hopping device that controls how much hop aroma is imparted into the beer without adding additional bitterness. This beer features a big citrus, pine, and tropical fruit hop profile.
Smuttynose Brewing Company’s Noonan clone
Many consider Greg Noonan and his Vermont Pub and Brewery as the birthplace of the modern day black IPA. Here is their tribute recipe to the Vermont Pub and Brewery’s Black Watch, black IPA, a truly unique beer.
Texas Imperial Brown Ale
American Brown ale was once referred to as Texas Brown ale, since the Dixie Cup was the first competition to recognize the style. In honor of that, David Cato brewed his Texas Imperial Brown Ale, which is more or less a brown I.P.A. It’s a richly flavored beer and very hoppy, appropriately enough with Amarillo® hops. This beer, by David Cato took 2nd place in the Imperial Beer category.
