Amarillo Pale Ale Homebrew Recipe

Clawhammer Supply: "Join us for a brew day from the 80s with this homebrew recipe that's back from the future. We're brewing another beer from quarantine and this time it's an Amarillo Pale Ale. This is a perfect summer time recipe that makes a bitter and floral pale ale that's perfect for mowing the lawn or taking to a cookout. Other than beer, we discuss some of our favorite movies from the 80s and the early 90s like Edward Scissorhands and Pee Wee's Big Adventure, which is Kyle's favorite movie. Make sure to check out the resources below for a full recipe, to shop for homebrewing equipment, and to learn more about Amarillo hops."

All Together IPA Recipe

A Clawhammer Supply #Stayhome and Brew Special!

"Bored during quarantine? Already watched Tiger King twice? Tired of the news? Now you can sit back and watch Kyle as he tackles a totally normal brew day on his own. Well, he does have a few friends who help him along the way, but you'll have to see that for yourself.

We're brewing the All Together IPA (https://alltogether.beer/), which is a refreshing and delicious golden, hoppy beer - but it's the cause behind the beer that makes this one special. This project is a worldwide, open-ended beer collaboration created to raise support for the industry we love. All YouTube revenue made from this video will be donated somewhere and we'll use the comments to guide us. That's right, we're asking YOU, our viewers, to choose what that means. So let us know in the comments where you think the money should go. We hope you enjoy the video, and yes, we are also worried about Kyle. 

Keep your eye out for a special guest (live from prison!), a ghostly floating eyebrow piercing that's not at all an editing mistake, and some important advice from a totally legit doctor!"

Norwegian Pale Ale Homebrew Recipe

Clawhammer Supply:

"Stay at home and join us for a brew day where we make a pale ale with wild yeast that came from a wooden barrel in Norway. This yeast was sent to us by a fan of our channel and we had no idea how it would turn out, but experimenting with wild yeast is always fun because it’s not something you can buy at the store. Even without this weird yeast, this video gives you a great and easy to follow pale ale homebrew recipe that you can use with a regular store-bought yeast like California Ale Yeast from White Labs. A pale ale is a perfect middle ground between a hoppy IPA and a light lager, so they’re perfect for just about anyone to enjoy.

 This is an unintentionally hazy pale ale with a simple grain bill and just enough hops for a medium bitterness. We used Palisade hops from Yakima Chief Hops in this beer which have an apricot and floral aroma to them. This is a great recipe for beginner homebrewers and for people with more experience. If you haven’t already, try harvesting some wild yeast. It’s super fun and you never know what you’ll get. Check out the resources below for a full recipe, brewing equipment, links to our previous wild yeast experiments, and more!"

Within reason, the winner will be invited to provide the name for their brew (no vulgarity, etc.).

Ingredients

Yeast: Wyeast 1728 (Scottish ale), Wyeast 3522 (Belgian ale), and GigaYeast 054 (Vermont ale).  We will make any of these available to home brewers by appointment.  Please bring your own container for transport (we can sanitize it for you here).  Other commercially available dry yeasts are also an option as long they are financially feasible.

Grain: We deal with Country Malt and Brewer’s Supply Group.  We get all of our grain pre-milled.  Please use their product lists when formulating your recipes.

Hops:  If we have it in inventory, we are happy to sell it to you at cost for use in your brews.  We currently have the following: Belma, Falconer’s Flight, Centennial Type, Zeus, Equinox, Citra, Cascade, Amarillo, Mosaic, EKG, Gr Herkules, Gr Northern Brewer, Gr Hallertau, Gr Perle, Bravo, Centennial, Columbus, Hersbrucker

As long as prices are reasonable, and there is ample spot purchase availability, we are happy to buy any other hops ya’ll choose to brew with!

Agents & Adjuncts:  We typically use YeastEx 82 and Whirlfloc, as well as Phosphoric acid, Calcium Chloride, and Calcium Sulfate, in every brew.  If you would like to use other yeast/fermentation agents, flocculating agents, or water treatment chemicals, please run them by us first. 

If you’d like to use flavoring adjuncts, please keep cost and feasibility in mind.  As you can see from our selection of beers, we have done quite a bit of work with adjuncts!  We are comfortable with each of the following methods of making such additions: loose in the mash, in large strainer bags in the boil, in small strainer bags in the fermenter, loose in the fermenter, inline through our hop-back during knockout or FV to Brite Tank transfer.  Also, keep in mind that we have a full kitchen that is capable of toasting grains, cracking beans, making syrups, preparing and pulverizing fresh herbs & spices, etc.

Misc:  The ABBC brewhouse vessels are all steam jacketed.  We pitch our yeast from chilled kegs of each pure culture.  All cellar vessels are fully glycol jacketed.  We have a plate-and-frame filter available for use with 700 or 1,000 micron pads.  We force-carbonate all of our beers.

We look forward to tasting your delicious brews, and getting a chance to work together!!!

To arrange to pick up yeast, or if you have any questions or comments, please be in touch with Sammie and Marcus at abbcbrewmaster@gmail.com.  Please give at least two days’ notice for picking up any ingredients.
