India Pale Ale was shipped from England to India for the British troops. To withstand the journey, IPA needed to be a heavily hopped, malty brew with high levels of alcohol.
Coopers Brewmaster Selection IPA recipe can be easily modified to make an authentic IPA like those produced in the early 1800s. Beware, as this recipe produces a beer with serious bitterness, sure to please the "Hopheads"!
Ingredients
Method
- Place the Coopers Light Dry Malt into a drained, sanitised fermenter.
- Add 2 litres of hot water.
- Immediately pick the fermenter up and swirl the contents until dissolved (approx 15 secs).
- Mix in the balance of ingredients then top up the fermenter with cool water to the 20litre mark.
- Pitch the yeast and seal
