BJCP 2021 Style 12C English IPA

I’ve been wanting to brew a wet-hop beer for ages and finally got the chance this year. My harvest was pitiful, but a neighbour offered me her bumper crop of Fuggles and Cascade. The smell as they all went into the whirlpool was incredible. When young the beer is silky smooth and has some unusual fruity flavours that you might not immediately associated with the hop character of the dried version.

Apart from the pellet/cone hop bittering addition at 60 minutes, all of the hops are fresh and added at the 80 degree whirlpool in order to extract maximum flavour whilst ensuring that any creepy crawlies are pasteurised. I bagged mine in a large brew-in-a-bag grain bag to avoid blocking the pump.
