21st Amendment Bitter American Ale | 5 Gallon Beer Recipe Kit | All-Grain

    Description

    • This BrewMaster Series kit was scaled down to a homebrew batch size in collaboration with the brewmasters at 21st Amendment
    • An easy-drinking pale ale with few bittering hops but giant fistfuls of flavor and aroma hops
    • Includes Cascade, Liberty, and Willamette hops
    • Estimated ABV: 4.3%
    • Estimated IBUs: 33-41
    • Makes 5 gallons of finished beer

    Shaun is known for creating beers that are well-balanced while doing some unique things, such as using watermelon juice in a wheat beer, or oyster shells in an oatmeal stout. His Assistant brewer Jesse created this beer, an easy-drinking pale ale with few bittering hops but giant fistfuls of flavor and aroma hops. This beer has low alcohol and a soft malt backbone with an incredible hop finish - your answer to the hop shortage! Jesse and Shaun recommend using WLP001. 

    Shaun O'Sullivan of the 21st Amendment, San Francisco, California
    Shaun's brewing career started like most in the beer industry - homebrewing. While working at a Southern California law firm, Shaun was spending his time making beers at home. After about 2 years, he not only decided that he wanted to make beer for a living, but that he wanted to open his own place! Shaun moved up to the SF Bay Area to start working at a few local breweries, while taking several brewing courses at UC Davis. Shaun eventually teamed up with his business partner Nicco Freccia, and together, they founded the 21st Amendment Brewery and Restaurant. They are one of the few breweries in the country leading the craft beer canning revolution, canning their "Brew Free or Die" IPA, and their "Hell or High Watermelon", which is an American-style Wheat beer brewed with real watermelon juice. When in San Francisco, visit Shaun at the brewery (563 2nd Street), which is just two blocks from Giants park.

        Not as good as the extract version

        I've brewed the extract version of this beer many times and it's one of my favorites to keep in a keg. The extract version has a very tasty malt backbone, but not particularly hoppy. Then again, I never thought the original was that hoppy either.So after years of being lazy, I took the time to brew the all grain version. I used WLP001 with in a starter as I always do, and hit all the numbers spot on. No, it's not hoppy (but either is the real thing or the extract version, in my opinion). And it doesn't taste like the real thing (but either does the extract version). What I'm disappointed in is it doesn't have that unique malt taste like the extract version.I'd say I must have done something wrong, but another reviewer wasn't that happy with his result either. So I can't give it a great review. I'd save time and brew the extract version. It is reliable, forgiving of mistakes, consistent, and tastes great.

        Great Kit!

        Was a big hit with friends and family. Will be brewing again soon.Hard to compare to the packaged product, I have a feeling 21A has a better brewing process than me, but they were close enough that people could recognize it as clone!

        Awesome kit!

        This is a great kit - didn't have access to a can of it from 21A, but seemed close to what I remembered the beer being like. Loved the combo of british malt & american hops. Perfect session beer
