Sigaro Stone Clone IPA (All Grain)

Author: Sigaro | Filed under: Homebrew

Stone IPA Clone

Stone IPA Clone

Name: Stone IPA Clone (All Grain)

Brewery: Sigaro Basement Brewery

Overall Rating: B

Style: IPA

Serving Style: Cornelius Keg

ABV: 5.34%

IBU: 67.1

Price: $Free!?

Aroma: Centennial hops are dominant from the dry hopping and late boil additions.  Very little malt aromatics.

Appearance: Nice clear pale.  Bold head.  Perfect for the style.

Flavor: Too dry, but still a nice IPA.  I could see if I hit the dang target temps in my single infusion that this would have more body and be even better than the Stone IPA.

Mouthfeel: Dry.  Well carbonated.  Resiny hops finish coats the teeth.

Enjoyability: For my first all-grain brewed in the bitter Cleveland winter at 19F, I think it came out better than expected.   I’ll be doing all grain all the time now and plan to retry the recipe again soon.

    Improve your efficency and it will improve this beer. It’s my favorite recipe. I assume you got it from HomeBrewtalk as its Edwort’s Stone IPA clone.

    Yeah, that was my first allgrain and all new equipment…plus it was 19 degrees in my garage. I missed the temps pretty badly.

    It’s indeed EdWorts recipe (which I think he said he just lifted of BYO or something).

    Since I’ve moved to crushing my own grain and getting better with the temps, my efficiency is now around 70 – 75% so I’ll try it again. Thanks for the comments!
