Red IPA

We wanted a nice red malty IPA for the the spring. Something that is balanced but not quite as light as the session IPA that we just kicked. The malt bill of this IPA is based of Lakefront Brewing's Fixed Gear Red Ale. The hops we chose were El Dorado and Simcoe. Simcoe hops are one of our favorites for hoppy beers. We have never used El Dorado hops before but we are hoping they play well together.

Hoppy American Brown Ale

We had open containers of cascade and willamette, in addition to several crystal and dark grains on hand. Obviously we decided to make a brown IPA! Recipe is loosely inspired by Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale.

Throwback - Old School/New School IPA

Had in mind to brew a throwback IPA with only Centennial and Cascade Hops, and Cali Ale yeast. Here's where the New School comes in: we couldn't resist making another 100% Brett beer. 

Session IPA w/ Experiments

Our normal Session recipe, with the addition of some Vienna Malt. We hoped to make 5 gallons to keg and 4 to experiment with.

Burton Baton Clone -- Part 1, Old Ale

Kayla's 25th birthday is coming up and she wanted something Imperial and hoppy. Her request was a clone Dogfish Head's Burton Baton--two beers blended together. Recipe from IPA, by Mitch Steele.

Burton Baton Clone -- Part 2, IIPA

Part 2 of clone of Dogfish Head's Burton Baton, the aggressively hopped and dry-hopped IIPA. Recipe from IPA, by Mitch Steele. 

Floor'd Black IPA

We finally brewed a Black IPA! We used the grain that fell on the floor with additional grain from 3 Stars Brewing Co. We decided to finally use some of our pound of mosaic hops and are quite excited to see how it turns out.

708 Kitchen Sink

Our last tribute to 708 before we moved into a new place. A hoppy and sessionable IPA/Pale Ale with the kitchen sink worth of hops. Cleaning out the freezer!

Session IPA

Based on Beer Advocate's (and AHA's) 'Pliny the Toddler' (AHA Pliny the Toddler). We really wanted a sessionable IPA -- especially with out new kegging system. Something drinkable, but aggressively hopped. We wanted grapefruity, citrusy, tropical; instead of piney, resiny, bitter. We'll reuse the yeast for a IBA/ Black IPA more towards the Fall.

Reunited IPA - 100% Brettanomyces IPA

Kayla is finally in DC and we decided to make something for the occasion. We've been wanting to play around with Brett and we love hoppy IPAs.
