Denny's newest spin around the block on his concept of an Americanized mild - aka building enough hop character to be distinctly American without blowing out the wonderful drinking properties of a mild!

Nick's award winning - no really - AHA NHC Overall Winner -

This is the stepped up cousin to our American Pale Ale. More hops and a touch more gravity.

Tiffany Ashrafi's "Mother's" beer, designed to taste like porter and cookies and help nursing moms with the whole nursing thing.

A Brazilian swing on the Berliner Weiss, but with more oomph and a decided Tropical flair

A dark mild full of flavor, but not the alcohol. This is about the biggest sort of "modern" mild I've made. Just a touch roasty, but full of malt and toffee flavors.

Our first recipe challenge tackled is this suggestion from Aaron Kennison who asked for a Hoppy Rye Lager beer - why not see what Denny can do?

A Tropical Stout as rich and warm as the island of Maui - think a bigger version of a milk/cream stout as discussed on Episode 31 of the show!

A giant roasted pecan, cinnamon, vanilla infused imperial stout

This is Denny's classic Barleywine recipe - packs a wallop and makes you feel a little stoned

A straightforward dubbel recipe perfect for sipping year round - but particularly fall!

The lightest and hardest beer you can make that should satisfy that guy in your life.

Drew's take on the modern Festbier for a clean party beer to share with a few hundred thousand of your closest friends!

A simple modern American Pale Ale useful for hop testing

Inspired by the tradition of Samichlaus, this is the biggest, baddest, boldest lager around. Brewed and aged for 1 year before service and really shines at about 3-5 years.

When you need a Devil in your glass - make it a Hobo!

New Fangled New England IPA. This recipe is an amalgamation of a few recipes out on the internet - particularly Ed Coffey's HopHands Clone and Jason Faylor's NE IPA that he kindly sent us for tasting. Who's Israel Bissell? He's my ancestor who legendarily rode from Watertown MA to Philadelphia warning of the British attack. In other words - he's the guy who made Paul Revere look like a piker!

This is a clean basic American Pale Ale that we're putting together to test American hopping impacts. Inspired by Klickitat Jim's visiting of hop whirlpool temps

Classic style Irish Dry Stout - for all your feasting days and time spent at the pub

A twist on Drew's classic Saison using YCHops new product "American Noble". These are the left overs from the Cryo hop process and promise American hop characters, but in a more subtle, muted fashion. Naturally, that intrigues me! So I took the peppery, citrusy Loral "American Noble" and used it in a batch of Saison. Works like a charm! (Thanks to YCH for sponsoring the podcast and providing the debittered leaf/American nobles for this brew)

For years when homebrewers would try and recreate the magic of a beer like Westy 12, the recipes were complicated. How about simplicity instead?

The first place winner in the 2017 AHA National Homebrew Competition in American IPA. Chase's IPA is a bit of a hybrid with a look back at the West Coast with some "new" New England flair. This is a little different than the version discussed on the show because it's his newer version

A simple modern pale ale recipe designed to explore the impacts of biotransformation.

A slightly more sophisticated take on the imperialized version of the American lager
