Red Dog Pale Ale

Ale - American Pale Ale
All Grain
* * * * * 10 Votes

Brewer's Notes

Mash at 65'c for 90 mins. Use 16 litres for 5.2kg grain. Strike temperature of 73C should get a strike temperature of 65'. Sparge water. Allow for 24 litres @ 90C. This is darker than LCPA, but very close in flavour and aroma. 1st all grain brew, and one that always pleases the crowd. Dry hop with casdade at 1 gm per litre. Credit to Roy here.
Important to keep the IBU's up above 40 to balance the malt in this.

Thought this was the thread for the "Red Dog Pale Ale by jyo"
(this is where i'm directed to from the recipe DB?)

tasted the above beer "Red Dog Pale Ale" tonight after two weeks in the bottle, very very yummy. I think it needs a week or two more for the flavors to meld, but great already. It spent 4 weeks in the primary because i didn't have time to bottle though (man i need more kegs)

Changes i made because of available malt: used Powells ale and Weyermann CaraMunich II

:icon_cheers:
cheers jyo
 
This is the discussion topic for the recipe: Yorkies Pale Ale

mmm, didn't mean to post this :wacko:

Link is broken now. That's one reason I rarely post on the DB. Once you have completed your recipe there seems to be no button for "save this recipe" - it all seems to happen when you press "Discuss", and if you go back to alter something at the last minute you end up with a blank sheet again. So then you find the recipe again in the DB, make your changes and then press "Discuss" again and wahooo you have just created two discussion threads and only one of them works. But by that time a couple of people have posted in the one that doesn't work to say that the link doesn't work.

World of Pain and confusion, I personally won't be posting in the DB again in the forseeable. If someone wants a recipe they can PM me.

I don't know what the hell I did with that link. I think I tried to change the name of the recipe. Mmm, drinking while googling again....

Here is the link:

I brewed this one on Anzac day, and i'm still drinking from the keg. I don't share it, I like it that much. In beersmith, mine came out at 49IBU and 4.9% ABV. I'm thinking about changing the hop schedule to include some more Chinook at some point in the boil, but keep it roughly the same IBU. Cheers for the recipe! It's great.

Glad you enjoy it. Such a simple recipe. I would definitely keep the IBU's up there, otherwise the crystal does become too sweet. I also use the same bill with 400-500 of wheat, and drop the carapils. The extra Chinook would be great. This is my easy go-to recipe to fill a keg. :icon_drunk:

Cheers, John.

P.S. If a mod could fix the thread title to match the recipe name and link, that would be great. My drunk internetting stuffed up.
 
Agreed on the crystal. I wouldn't mind upping the IBU's to the Mid 50's maybe... I just kegged another version of this with EKG for bittering, and cascade in the rest of the boil. Was nice, but nothing like the original ;) Cheers again.
 
Here's my next attempt at this one. Re-Labeled as an IPA. Thought it was a bit closer to IPA guidelines in the BJCP, hope you don't mind jyo.

No worries, mate. It is a great recipe that allows stuff up with mash temps, so it was a great recipe for me to start off with. Assuming a 23 litre batch, try dropping back the crystal to about 250 and throw in 500 of wheat. This has worked really well.
Cheers, John.
 
Hi,

Ran out of chinook, wondering if anyone has done an all cascade version of this beer?

If not, would it be ok being all cascade?
 
Thanks, Brad.

Well, I had to say goodbye to my old Red Dog mate yesterday after nearly 16 years. He was a red heeler cross pit bull and was such an awesome family dog.

I will be brewing an all Cascade 50 IBU version of this on the weekend.

Cheers.

Cheers, Batz. Yeah, they really get under your skin, mate.
I've had the old bugger since I moved out of home at 19, so he's been through a lot of ups and downs.

Cheers.
