Notes
Brewing Process:
Mash: Conduct a single infusion mash at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes to achieve a balanced fermentable sugar profile.
Boil: Boil the wort for 60 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule above.
Fermentation: Cool the wort to 68°F (20°C) and pitch the yeast. Ferment at this temperature until completion.
Dry Hopping: After primary fermentation, add the dry hops and allow them to steep for 3-5 days to impart the desired aroma.
Packaging: Once fermentation and dry hopping are complete, package the beer through bottling or kegging, ensuring proper carbonation.
Additional Tips:
Water Profile: Aim for a water profile that accentuates hop bitterness and clarity, typical of West Coast IPAs.
Beer Advocate
Clarity: To achieve the characteristic clarity of PIG IPA, consider using fining agents or cold crashing before packaging.
Bellwoods PIG IPA - CLONE
Style:
West Coast IPA
ABV:
7.0%
Appearance:
A clear, deep golden to light amber color with a moderate white head that laces the glass as you drink.
Aroma:
Intensely hop-forward with bright citrus, resinous pine, and tropical fruit notes. Expect a burst of pineapple, apricot, grapefruit, and dank pine aromas from the Simcoe, Centennial, Cascade, and Columbus hops.
Flavor:
A bold, hop-driven profile with a crisp and slightly dry finish. The first sip delivers a balance of citrusy grapefruit, tropical pineapple, and stone fruit sweetness, followed by resinous pine and herbal bitterness. A touch of bready malt from pale and Munich malts supports the hop character without overshadowing it.
Mouthfeel:
Medium-bodied with moderate carbonation, providing a smooth yet crisp texture. The bitterness is firm but not overwhelming, giving it a clean and refreshing West Coast-style finish.
Overall Impression:
PIG IPA is a classic West Coast IPA that delivers a crisp, bitter, and resinous experience with layers of tropical and citrus fruit complexity. Its clean fermentation and dry finish make it a highly drinkable yet flavourful hop-forward beer.
