Coopers India Pale Ale (IPA) reviewed by Smithy

posted on May 1, 2010 in Beer Recipe Reviews

Mixed the can with 500g of LME, 500g of
dextrose,
1 x cascade hop teabag, and the kit
yeast. Brewed
at 18-20degC for 3 weeks, OG 1040/FG
1010.
Primed with 1 tsp cane sugar. Been in
the bottle for
about 7 weeks, very tasty already. Nice
piney
aroma, clean white head which lasts the
whole way
down the glass. Light red/brown in
colour with a
perfect balance between bitterness and a
hint of
caramel sweetness. Would give Squires
IPA a run
for their money in a blind tasting, can
be made
more true to style with extra malt/dex
resulting in
6-7% beer if thats your thing. If you
like IPA, make
this beer!
