This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 18B - American Pale Ale.

We are hop heads, we can't deny it. This pale ale bursts with tropical aromas & flavours.  The recipe has been updated recently to highlight an exciting new American hop Meridian, supported with Citra and NZ hops Nectaron and Pacifica.

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 21A - American IPA.

SMASHadelic is a Single Malt And Single Hop IPA recipe designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

SMASH IPAs are an ideal way to get to know the character of a hop, so we thought what better way to celebrate the recent release of New Zealand Hops’ exciting new variety Superdelic™. This recipe allows the hop’s unique oil character to shine by incorporating just enough supporting malt character from Maris Otter, with a clean crisp fermentation profile.

Coming in at 6.6% abv, this recipe provides the perfect backdrop for experiencing the range of flavours and aromas of red fruit, candy, citrus and tropical fruit, characteristic of this new hop. So go on, grab yourself a kit and smash it out of the park.

Sunshine of your Love is a cream ale designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

The sun is shining fiercely, it’s hot as hell and you have sweat running down your back after mowing the lawns. What is better than a classic lawnmower beer such as a cream ale? An easy drinking ale, well attenuated and refreshing with more character than typical American lagers.

This beer is all about balance, being subtle and restrained with med-low bitterness and low malt sweetness. Coming in at 5.0% abv, it’s light and crisp, with maize and sugar to lighten the body and soft spicy (herbal and floral) notes from the Willamette hops. High levels of carbonation will make it super refreshing. Suggested music pairing: Cream, Sunshine of your Love.

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 12B - Australian Sparkling Ale.

Fair Dinkum is an Australian Sparkling Ale designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

As a trans-tasman version of the style, this recipe was created using all New Zealand ingredients. Notably, Pacific Jade hops replace the more commonly used Australian grown Pride of Ringwood hop. This beer adheres closely to the style guidelines though, and those familiar with Cooper’s Sparkling Ale (brewed since 1862) shouldn’t be disappointed by this modern interpretation from across the ditch. With an initial sweet, bready impression, it is highly attenuated and dry with a robust balancing bitterness. Fruity esters reminiscent of pomme fruit give way to notes of citrus, which along with high levels of carbonation, add to a crisp refreshing finish.

Our Australian buddies might well try to claim the pavlova as their own, but with this recipe you can claim Fair Dinkum as your own perfect summer quaffer.

ABV: 5.5%
