Designed to maximise the haze in your juice - or is that the juice in your haze?

Patriot uses all-american trio of hops, being Citra, Mosaic and Eukanot. The recipe has no boil additions, instead relying on a 100g 30-minute whirlpool addition followed by a 7-day and 5-day dry hop addition of 100g each.

With rolled oats and raw wheat in the mash, you can be sure all this juice is sitting on top of a hazy full-bodied mouthfeel. And with a sessionable 4.7% ABV, it's the perfect drop for a sunny afternoon spent watching the ball game.

ABV: 4.7%

This New England Hazy IPA is our first to use Sabro hops. If you ever felt like getting smacked in your face with tropical fruit and fresh coconut - don't look any further!
We have to be honest, Sabro hops are the star of this beer, with support from NZ Trial hop 4337 and Nelson Sauvin.

Estimate ABV - 5.3%

This recipe has been designed to use acid malt to reach the target mash pH. If you wish to use the recommended mineral additions to achieve the intended flavour profile, these are to be added to the boil only. This kit does not include the minerals, but these can be purchased separately.

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 21B Specialty IPA: Black IPA.

Twenty Thousand Leagues is a Black IPA recipe brought back from the deep dark depths of time by Jamie McQuillan. With a few little tweaks along the way this recipe remains true to style, falling under the category of Specialty IPAs 21B. In Jamie’s hands, this beer took out a silver medal at the SOBA National Homebrew Competition in 2014.

It drinks as a Black IPA should. A judicious use of crystal malt and bitterless Eclipse Wheat give the beer its dark colouring, while allowing the resinous, piney, citrus and mango hop characters to shine through. The hop flavours are gently supported by undertones of chocolate and coffee without any of the harsher, toasted notes typically associated with roasted barley found in many dark beers.

As we dive into the cold winter months, this beer is the perfect remedy for lovers of a good hoppy west coast IPA who are seeking something a little more suited to fireside drinking. Cheers.

ABV: 7.1%

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 21B - Specialty IPA: White IPA.

Cloud Animals is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

A white IPA is a very recent style. They were first conceived in 2010 as a collaboration between American Larry Sidor of Deschutes Brewery, Oregon, and Belgian-born Steven Pauwels of Boulevard Brewing. Their efforts to meld elements of both an IPA and Belgian wit gained enough popularity to quickly develop into a new beer style.

True to style, Cloud Animals offers a fruity, spicy, lighter and more refreshing version of an American IPA with a soft cushioning body and cloudy appearance. Lightly spiced with coriander and orange peel and providing characteristic Belgian wit esters, this beer has a refreshing level of bitterness with a moderately dry finish. It’s not hard to imagine why something this deliciously drinkable quickly gained popularity. It delivers the best that IPAs and wit beers have to offer all wrapped up in one tasty package. Cheers!

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 12C - English IPA.

Last orders is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

The English IPA has its roots in the 1700s as a highly hopped stock ale shipped to India, and the modern version of this style is based on a re-imagining of the style by craft breweries in the 1980s.

You should expect a moderately-strong, very well-attenuated pale British ale with a dry finish, hoppy aroma and flavour, and a firm bitterness. This version is built upon a classic malt bill of Marris Otter, and cushioned with a touch of biscuit, crystal and dextrin (Gladiator) malts, bringing body and balancing the malt without lingering sweetness. Firmly bittered with British target hops, followed by generous later additions of the earthy and floral Fuggles and East Kent Golding hops, this pale amber English IPA is perfect for those seeking an IPA that is not just all about the hops, but rather a restorative drinking experience with a little extra to chew on. Cheers.

Cold As Ice is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery, keeping firmly in mind Wayfinder’s description of what a cold IPA (“the anti-thesis of a NEIPA’) should be and how they should ideally be made. This recipe also draws upon his own drinking experience (the best part right?) and a preference for the hop character of a classic dank west coat IPA. The resulting beer is a showcase of an awesome trio of hops (Simcoe, Centennial and Amarillo) delivering punchy pine and citrusy grapefruit notes.

Typically, cold IPAs are brewed with an adjunct lager malt bill as the base, helping to produce a crisp dry finish perfect for showcasing the hops. For simplicity, removing the need to pre-process the unmalted grains, this recipe utilises dextrose (corn sugar) to the same effect.

Pouring a straw colour, fermented clean with a lager yeast at restrained temperatures and packed full of whirlpool and dry hop aroma, Cold As Ice finishes with a firm bitterness that should satisfy any drinker who appreciates both lagers and IPAs.

We originally partnered with our good friends at Lallemand to bring you a special promotion - it proved so popular that we sold out so we've decided to keep it going without the free yeast (sorry!).

This recipe is designed to be in keeping with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 21A: American IPA.

Chameleon is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery. It is built upon the foundations of a classic American (West Coast) IPA, “ a decidedly hoppy and bitter, moderately strong, pale American ale”, but with a couple of twists to showcase both a new hybrid yeast and a new hop variety.

The recipe is built upon a bill of American Ale malt with just a touch of specialty malt to gently support and allow the hops to shine. The beer is fermented with Lallemand’s newly released hybrid yeast, Pomona™ . Among other attributes, Pomona™  possesses an enhanced capacity for the biotransformation of hop terpenes to produce a unique and juicy flavour profile with notes of peach, citrus, and tropical fruits. The arrival of Pomona™  was perfectly timed allowing us to also showcase the newly arrived KrushTM (HBC 586 ) hops from Yakima Chief hops. This new US hop delivers a unique array of citrus, tropical, stone fruit and berry notes which pair beautifully with the much loved Mosaic hops.

Expect a classic West Coast style IPA, clean crisp and firmly bitter with a punchbowl full of delicious new world hop flavours and aromas.

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 18B - American Pale Ale.

Combining the best of European and NZ malts to form a beautiful pale golden color and support a high dosage of US hops, this XPA is designed to give you a big hop-hit in a sessionable beer. Columbus, Amarillo and Simcoe feature prominently. Fermented with California Lager M54 for a clean profile.

Target ABV: 5%

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 25A - Belgian Blond Ale.

Belgian style beers feel very hard to find these days. If you're like us and enjoy the fantastic unique flavours a Belgian yeast can produce, you really start to miss one in the sea of hazy's out there. Brew one yourself!

This Belgian Golden Ale will remind you of a Leffe Blond - bubblegummy with a hint of spice on the nose, sweet malt but dry enough on the finish to make you take the next sip. 

We've created the recipe so you can decide if and how much sugar you want to add. It's more authentic if you add the suggested amount of sugar to the boil - or you can lower the ABV by leaving it out - up to you!

Target ABV: 6.2% - 6.9%
