Anchorage Brewing Co.’s A Deal with the Devil clone
This massive American-style barleywine from Anchorage Brewing (Anchorage, Alaska) utilizes only one hop variety and loads of malt to ring in at 17% ABV. Anchorage ages it for 11 months in Cognac barrels.
Catharina Guajava
A Brazilian kettle-soured fruit beer.
pFriem Family Brewers’ Hefeweizen clone
Two different Pilsner malts, two wheat malts, two noble hops, and one yeast strain make this a simple but compelling recipe.
American Brown Ale
The American brown ale was a style that arose through two distinct channels, the craft beer world and the homebrew world. Here is Gordon Strong’s take on the American brown ale that arose via the craft beer world, such as Pete’s Wicked Ale.
Trillium Brewing Company: Fort Point Pale Ale clone
Trillium’s website describes this beer as, “Layers of hops-derived aromas and flavors of citrus zest and tropical fruit rest on a pleasing malt backbone. Dangerously drinkable with a dry finish and soft mouthfeel from wheat. Our year round hoppy pale ale culminates in a restrained bitterness and dry finish.”
The Alchemist: Moose Knuckle clone
This is an American pale ale recipe pulled from the old files of The Alchemist Pub & Brewery, prior to the devastating 2011 flood from Hurricane Irene that badly damaged the original brewpub property in Waterbury, Vermont and forced the closure of that location.
New Albion Brewing: New Albion Ale
The very first microbrewed American Ale has a deep gold appearance and a subtle malt character. The Cascade hops give it a spicy pine hop profile.
Eddyline Brewing Company: River Runners Pale Ale clone
River Runners Pale Ale is a classic American pale ale with a bright, summery, fresh, fruity aroma and an easy-drinking quality.
Deschutes Brewing Company: Gluten Free NWPA clone
A hop-forward gluten-free pale ale cleverly brewed with brown rice syrup and Belgian candi syrup for a beer that gluten-free and non-gluten-free drinkers can all enjoy! Brewed exclusively at Deschutes’ Portland Public House in Portland, Oregon.
Starr Hill Brewery: Jomo clone
This year-round offering from Starr Hill is fermented with Southern German lager yeast, its crisp, clean taste, and noticeable hop aroma are effectively balanced with a slight malty sweetness. Jomo has won multiple awards, including two gold medals (2004, 2011) at the Great American Beer Festival.
Theodore Hamm’s Brewing Company’s Hamm’s clone
Hamm’s is crisp, refreshing and very light in color and body. It typically has very high carbonation levels that cover any sweetness that might be present. This beer is brewed with a double mash and is diluted upon packaging as all American-style Pilsners are.
P. Ballantine & Sons Brewing Company: Ballantine XXX clone
Ballantine was founded in New Jersey in 1840, making it one of the oldest brands of beer in the United States, and was at one time the third largest brewery in the country. In 2014 the brand was bought by Pabst Brewing Company, but this clone recipe is for the original Ballantine XXX, long the brewery’s most popular beer.
