I am looking for a recipe to get something close to the Atomic PA.

I know it has Cascade, Centennial, Chinook and Citra hops in it. So would doing something with a Coopers PA can of goop with some crystal, ldme and dextrose with US-05 get me something close?

Cheers.

Haven't had it for a while but I'd not use dextrose. I can't think of any ales that aren't 7%+ that would benefit from it.
 
You sure it's got 4 different hops in it? Perhaps I had a stale one, but it was pretty bland from memory (I've only tried it once and it was ~3 months ago now).

As Black_labb says, ditch the Dextrose, I only ever use it on beers above 8% and even then I use it sparingly.

My one wasn't stale, but it was still bland. I think the atoms might have decayed.

Tasted like PoR at 60minutes to me. Last one I'll buy.
 
dex has a place, especially in all extract beers as they can tend to end up cloyingly sweet and end with a huigh FG...

helps thin them out a touch...

According to the label there is 4 hops in it. Anyway the good thing about home brew is there is no right or wrong, unless you make a crap tasting beer.

I will have a play around with it on the spreadsheet and see what comes up.

hardly worth cloning this, with so many vastly better recipes out there,
 
According to the Gage Road website:

Citra, Ahtanum and Centennial in the kettle, dry hopped 4.7%


I've tried this beer a couple of times and it's quaffable but could do with some more flavour. Its kind of like a watered down Sierra Nevada Pale

If using us05 I dont think dextrose is neccesary in most sub 8% ales. If using 514 (common kit yeast) but that yeast is much better suited to english styles.
