Legend Brewing Company: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, Could you please provide a recipe for Legend Brewing Company’s Utebier? I came across this beer on a whim and scored many great points with my wife.

Make Mine a Ballantine
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDuring the late 1960s and 1970s, when I was young and did a fair amount of traveling, one beer I was fond of was Ballantine XXX Ale. It was an ale rather than a lager, and it had a very noticeable hop character and presence. At a time when other American beers were becoming increasingly
Epic Brewing Company: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, It’s been fun to watch the growth and maturing of a local brewery: Epic Brewing Co. One beer that they put out which really stands out to me is Utah Sage Saison and I would love to try to clone it. Their website states they use Simon and Garfunkel’s spice blend, but only
Fuller’s: The Pride of London
Digital and Plus Members OnlyFuller’s Brewing Director John Keeling walked over to a large bookcase in his office at the Griffin Brewery in Chiswick, West London and pulled out one of the dozens of leather-bound, thick, oversized journals from the shelves. “Since 1845, every single batch of beer brewed here has been entered by hand into these brew books
Crazy Mountain Brewing Co.: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, I am an avid homebrewer and especially enjoy trying to replicate the great beers I come across in my journeys. I recently fell in love with Crazy Mountain Brewing Company’s Amber Ale and its floral-hoppy finish. To my dismay, I cannot find a clone recipe anywhere! I knew if anyone could tackle a project like
Mayflower Brewing Company: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, I’m not a hop head and usually don’t go for IPAs but recently I had the opportunity to tour the Mayflower Brewery in Plymouth, Massachusetts while traveling on business and tasted their IPA. It was the best IPA I have ever tasted. I recently began to brew my own beer and would love
Samuel Adams: Brewing Up a Revolution
Digital and Plus Members OnlyWhen making plans to visit Boston and the Samuel Adams brewery for this story, I discussed my itinerary with a friend living in the city’s South End, who seemed confused. “But isn’t Sam Adams, so – you know – big?” she asked me with one eyebrow cocked quizzically, implying what many of today’s well-rounded beer
Big Al Brewing: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, Working in the commercial aircraft industry, I get to travel a lot. They send me to Seattle at least once a year, where the craft beer scene has really exploded. There are a bunch of good breweries and brewpubs to choose from, but my favorite is Big Al Brewing. It is a laid
Green Leaf Brewing Co.: Replicator
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, My wife and I made friends with a couple from Vancouver, B.C. on their vacation up here in Anchorage. Last January we visited them and they took us to a newly opened brewpub, Green Leaf Brewing co. All of the beers were excellent but my wife said they had the best stout ever.
pFriem Family Brewers
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDear Replicator, A couple years ago I was traveling through the Columbia River Gorge from Portland, heading east and stopped off in Hood River, Oregon. I stumbled on a place called pFriem Family Brewers. I loved all their beers, but the Dunkelweizen really stood out. I recently was inspired to brew a weizen beer and
AmeriCAN Revolution: Oskar Blues Brewery Clone Recipes
Digital and Plus Members OnlyDale Katechis needed a plan. It was 1999, and Oskar Blues Grill & Brew, the cajun-style joint he’d founded two years earlier in tiny Lyons, Colorado, was struggling to bring in customers. “I was thinking that all of the people who told me I shouldn’t open a restaurant in a town of 1,400 people in
