21A IPA Recipe? ShaunO?

[Sully]

Well, we didn't get to the tasting of the beer on yesterday's show. It was on the schedule to taste along with a couple of other beers, but with all that was happening and the conical giveaway we ran out of time. I talked to Justin and we'll taste it the first show of the new year. I will tell you that I did open one of the bottles at the brewery on Friday and I sat down with a couple of other bay area breweries and we did like your beer very much and did do a side-by-side tasting with the 21A IPA and found it to be remarkably close. You did a great job and again I'm sorry we did not get to it last night. I hope you enjoyed the show...it was pretty crazy. See my post in Beer radio for my sorry ass excuse.

Well, I am finally able to schedule a brewday to make a version of this one, can't wait to see the airlock bubbling, it's been a while. So actually I am not fully able, my spine is still healing and held together with a collection of titanium hardware. But I did find someone more able bodied to help me - with a very generous offer from the fearless leader of our local "FearNoBeer" brew club we will be brewing on Jan 6, I'm off to the LBS to shop for ingredients.

Hey JMUBrew, if you still have any of yours left... I'd be happy to let you know how it compares, I still have a couple of cans left from my August visit to the 21A.

Hehe, I wish man! I've only got 3 bottles of it left! Keg went quick, was gone in under 2 weeks!

Going to do it in 10 gallons next time!

Send some in to TheBN. ShaunO still has 2 bottles left of mine to try! *cough*this time do it at the beginning of the damn show*cough*

Happy New Years!

Guys,

Thanks for this recipe. Tapped the keg this week. My best beer ever.

Thanks.

Glad to hear it! I love this beer!

Cool! I dry hopped my batch on Sunday, hygrometer sample was very promising...

Dude, don't you WORK??!?


Made a bastardized version with a buddy for his first brew. He is a hophead and I am not. That said, it was GREAT! Not very bitter at all, but so much flavor. REALLY nice!
