Brewing a Brut IPA
Brut IPAs are the current IPA rage blazing across the nation. Kim Sturvandt at Social Kitchen & Brewery in San Francisco is credited with being the first brewer to create this type
Alesmith Brewing Co.’s Evil Dead Red clone
Evil Dead Read utilizes a hop burst technique to provide tons of aromatics thanks to ample American hops added late in the boil without a true bittering hop charge.

To Be Schwarzed IPA
This was my first attempt at an American black IPA and I figured I should go big with the hops. I love this particular hop combo, but whatever your favorite is would work as well.
Paint it Black IPA
A black IPA made with rice malt.
Urban Family Brewing Co.’s Limesicle clone
This is a “milkshake IPA” using lactose and lime zest. Head Brewer of Urban Family Brewing (Seattle, Washington) Isaac Koski says the dry hop addition in this beer rotates among citrusy hops including Citra®, Simcoe®, or Motueka. “These are interchangeable in my mind based on availability and how they are smelling.”
At Wits’ End IPA
Recipe inspired by Collaboration #2, a collaboration between Boulevard Brewing Co. and Deschutes Brewery. Part witbier, part IPA, loaded with character.
Sumpin’ Like Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’ (Wheat IPA)
If you enjoy the Lagunitas Brewing Co.’s A Little Sumpin Sumpin, then you should enjoy this homebrewed version. Smooth malt background with the help of wheat and Victory® malt and a huge hop profile.
Smooth Rye’d
As the name implies, this is a smooth version of a rye IPA. It has the characteristic “snap” from rye and rye malt, but this is not as pronounced as in some rye beers. If you’d prefer a more “in your face” version, try adding a pound (0.45 kg) of rye malt to your mash.
DC’s Rye IPA
An older IPA recipe from our archives. Feel free to substitute with different hops or keep them the same to remember what an IPA was like before the IPA-mania.
Leaf Peeper Imperial Red
A fall time classic in my house. A big citrus blast of hops with a nice malt backdrop.
Amarillo Sunset Red IPA
Amarillo® hops can be a tough one to find in the market these days. If you do happen upon some, this is a great red IPA for using them.
