Coopers India Pale Ale (IPA)
by DJB @ 02, Apr 2010

 5/5

Follow up post, beer finally cleared in the secondary after 2 weeks. Decided to primed with 1 cup of Manuka Honey. ABV 6.1 It has aged in the cellar for 1 month. Frothy head nice bitter finish. Best of all is the flavor of the honey. WOW! Manuka honey has a strong caramel flavor. Great kit might do again. Just bottled a Hobgoblin clone from grain/malt extract recipe. Can't wait!!
 
Coopers India Pale Ale (IPA)
by DJB @ 27, Feb 2010

 5/5

Coopers calls for 500 grams light dry malt extract and 300 grams of dextrose. I opted for 3 pounds of pale LME and 600 grams of dextrose. I dry hopped with 1oz. Fuggles pellets in the secondary. Originating gravity 1043 primary fermented for 4 days racked to carboy. After 2 weeks in carboy it has yet to clear but did a gravity reading and it came in at 1002. Drank the sample and it tasted pretty good for a beer yet to be bottled. Nice and hoppy just like a pub IPA in england. Will wait a few more weeks to see if it clears take another reading and bottle. The ABV should come in around 6%. Will post again when ready. Cheers
