Corsendonk Monk’s Brown Ale clone
Corsendonk is an Abbey beer, not a Trappist beer. This designation means the beer is brewed not at an abbey, but under license from — or at least in the style of — a Trappist monastery. In the case of Corsendonk, the name is taken from an Augustine priory that produced beer from the 1600s until the 1780s. Whether the Augustine brothers brewed anything remotely resembling modern Corsendonk is debatable, but they have licensed their name to the beer since 1982.

Brouwerij Westmalle’s Abbey Tripel clone
The quintessential Trappist tripel, Westmalle is very pale, very strong, and wonderfully smooth. One of the brewhouse techniques that makes the Westmalle beers unique is the use of direct gas flames on the copper kettles. This creates hot spots that may caramelize the wort slightly, giving a faint burnt-sugar taste to the beers. The beers are also brewed with very hard water, which certainly contributes to the character of the tripel.
JM’s Peach Ginger Lager
A basic Lager, with honey, peaches, and fresh ginger.
Dogfish Head’s Chateau Jiahu Clone
One of Dogfish Head Craft Brewery’s collaboration beers with molecular archaeologist Dr. Patrick McGovern. According to Dogfish Head’s website, “In keeping with historic evidence, Dogfish brewers use orange blossom honey, muscat grape juice, barley malt and hawthorn fruit. The wort is fermented for about a month with sake yeast until the beer is ready for packaging.”
O’Shea Brewing’s Hop Monster Double IPA
This West Coast style double IPA is a topseller. It weighs in at 8.1% ABV, and, with over a 1/2 lb. of hops, the IBU’s register in at a whopping 141 IBU’s. This beer is very smooth with a nice hop punch and a great citrusy aroma. Let this beer age and you will want more!
Route 66 IPA
Route 66 IPA (5 gallons/19 L, all-grain) OG = 1.068 FG = 1.017 IBU = 66 SRM = 11 ABV = 6.6% Ingredients 10 lb. 12 oz. (4.9 kg) English 2-row

Odell Brewing’s Cutthroat Porter clone
This London-style porter was named after Colorado’s state fish – the Cutthroat Trout – and features a warm, rich color and roasty malt flavors.
Dark Horse Brewing’s Thirsty Trout Porter clone
According to Dark Horse’s website, “Thirsty Trout is a rich, robust American Porter that will have you yelling “CHOCOLATE!” after the first whiff. Dark brown in color with medium to heavy body and hints of light roast. Aromas of chocolate leave way to a full mouthfeel and somewhat sweet finish to make this porter a desirable companion.”
