- Source Notes:
- December 2019, Vol. 25, No. 8 page 67. Single-Wide IPA is Boulevard's take on a West Coast-style IPA, with a balanced profile coming from the interplay of malty notes from Single-Wide's grist bill and hop flavors and aromas coming from a solid lineup of American hops and a featured guest from down under.
- Notes:
- This recipe uses reverse osmosis (RO) water. Adjust all brewing water to a pH of 5.5 using phosphoric acid. Add 1 tsp. calcium chloride to the mash. Mash the malts at 154F for 60 minutes. Start recirculating wort. Raise the temperature to 168F for 15 minutes. Sparge slowly and collect 6.5 gallons of wort. Heat to boiling, and boil the wort for 90 minutes, adding hops at the times indicated in the recipe (if you can't find Topaz, substitute Amarillo). Adjust OG post-boil with RO water as required. Chill the wort to 62-64F, pitch the yeast, and ferment until complete. Dry hops should be added when gravity is about 1.016. Cool to 32-34F and cold condition for four days. Rack the beer, prime and bottle condition, or keg and force carbonate.
