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.

This is our take on the beer that is was leading the way for the craft beer revolution as we know it today: The iconic Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

We've substituted in local malt and some local hops without changing the great balance and drink-ability this beer is known for - mainly because we believe craft is also about using local!

It doesn't get more local than brewing it yourself, right?

ABV: 5.4%

Our kits are fresh! We assemble the ingredients after you place your order. The grain bill will be milled, unless you tell us in your order comments that you prefer it not to be.

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.
