J-Lo & Chew-zacca’s Wild Ride Pale Ale
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.049 FG = 1.012
IBU = 38 SRM = 3 ABV = 4.8%

Shared from the homebrewers in the test brewery at BSG HandCraft (headquartered in Shakopee, Minnesota), this pale ale combines both Azacca® and Jarrylo™ hops to create a drinkable homebrew with lots of grapefruit, pineapple, spice, and herbal notes. If you like this recipe, it might be a good candidate for adding grapefruit or another fruit flavor to further accentuate the hop characteristics.

INGREDIENTS

9.5 lbs. (4.3 kg) Rahr Standard 2-row malt
8 oz. (227 g) Weyermann Carahell® malt (10 °L)
8.2 AAU Jarrylo™ pellet hops (45 min.)
(0.5 oz./14 g at 16.3% alpha acids)
8.2 AAU Jarrylo™ pellet hops (5 min.)
(0.5 oz./14 g at 16.3% alpha acids)
2 oz. (57 g) Azacca® pellet hops (dry hop)
1 oz. (28 g) Jarrylo™ pellet hops (dry hop)
Fermentis Safale US-05 or Danstar BRY-97 (American West Coast) yeast
¾ cup corn sugar (if priming)

STEP BY STEP

Mash grains around 151–154 °F (66-68 °C) for 60 minutes. Sparge with enough water to collect about 6 gallons (23 L) of wort in the kettle. Boil for a total of 60 minutes, following hop additions as noted in the ingredients list. Follow the fermentation schedule given by the chosen yeast company for the strain you choose. After primary fermentation is complete, add the dry hops and let the beer sit on the hops for five days. You may want to cold-crash the beer prior to priming and packaging to 35 °F (2 °C) for 48 hours to improve the clarity.
