Recipe Type: Extract with Grains
Victory Brewing Company: Zeltbier clone
This crisp lager is just the thing for fall weather. It boasts a balanced malt profile with an herbal, German hop profile.
Occidental Brewing Company: Dunkel Lager clone
This smooth, malty beer based on the classic Munich style features an assortment of noble hops.
New Belgium Brewing Company: 1554 Black Lager clone
This unique dark lager uses a recipe that was destroyed by a flood in 1997 and the recreated by the researcher Phil Benstein and New Belgium Brewmaster Peter Bouckaert, based on ancient Belgian beer texts.
Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company: Neshaminator Wheat Bock clone
A traditional German wheat bock with a twist. Breaking from tradition, Neshaminy Creek adds orange blossom honey to add orange background notes.
Iron Hill Brewery: Bridge Street Bock clone
This beer won a bronze medal at the 2014 World Beer Cup. Brewer Tim Stumpf notes that he likes to add a sprinkle of calcium chloride to promote round, smooth maltiness in this beer.
Abita Brewing Company: Andygator Doppelbock clone
This original high-gravity brew is made with Pilsner hops, German lager yeast, and German Perle hops and features a slightly sweet flavor and dry aroma.
Thunder Island Brewing Company: Vitamin K Kölsch
This light yellow German-style ale is no longer brewed by Thunder Island, but you can brew it at home for a fresh, crisp brew for the summer.
Bozeman Brewing Company: Bozone Hefeweizen clone
2010 North American Beer Awards bronze medal winner is an American version of a German classic wheat beer. Bozeman uses Montana-grown malted pale barley, but if you can’t source that, any 2-row should work.
The Mitten Brewing Company: Label Up clone
Co-owner Chris Andrus wants to make it clear that “this is NOT a novelty beer.” Label Up is “first and foremost a brown ale.” The maple and pecan flavors are not intended to create an overly-sweet palate and should not prevent anyone from enjoying multiple pints of it!
Timothy Taylor Brewery: Boltmaker clone
Formerly known as Best Bitter, this classic English bitter was renamed in 2012 but retains its classic copper/amber color, citrus and fruity hop character, and a roasted, malty bitter finish.
Coach House: Post Horn Premium Ale clone
This extra special bitter pours a gold color and features a light, floral hop aroma.
Anchor Brewing Company: Anchor Small Beer clone (2nd Runnings)
This beer is brewed using the second runnings from a batch of Old Foghorn. Estimating the efficiency in such a scenario is quite challenging so be prepared to make some gravity adjustments upwards with dried malt extract or downwards by dumping some wort and topping off with water.
