Great video. Just found your channel...I will definitely be subscribing. What's sad to me is how many beer drinkers first exposure to IPAs was more of the West Coast style and the experience just blew them away with the extreme bitterness. I hear people all that time say something like "I don't like IPAs...they're too bitter"...to which I respond "have you ever tried a New England style IPA?" Love what you guys are doing (I'm watching from Arizona). I might have to start home-brewing so I'll have something to do with all of my home-grown blood oranges every January.

When i brew new england ipa i like to use the farmhouse yeasts from norway. I also have a great west coast-ish ipa that is loosly based on Traditional scandinavian farmhouse ales. I use a Lot of juniper berries and some juniper branches, piney hops, and a lithuanian farmhouse yeast.

So! What are your favourite West Coast IPAs? We'll go first - Racer 5, Russian River Blind Pig, Troegs Perpetual, Pressure Drop Bosko. Also, after filming Shane of the Cheshire Brewhouse got in touch to say he uses Munich malt rather than cara/crystal and actually uses his British ale yeast for all his beers (just different hopping rates/regimes/water treatment to differ his West Coasts and more New England style ones).

The bitterness of west coast IPAs is pretty overwhelming at first. I remember my first time visiting Oregon in 2017 (from the U.K.) and all the beer seemed to be this style - clear, insanely bitter and ABVs of like 8-10%. Complete opposite of Britain where the strongest easily available IPA was Punk. I love that kind of beer now though and still feel like Britain has a lot of catching up to do when it comes to the modern IPAs!

Bad ass Channel! My way of explaining New England IPA to a West Coast IPA is preference, East coast style usually is unfiltered with a more expressive yeast, with fruit that has a doughy lacing to it. The reason is because the style of brewing during the British colonial era, they didn't go the extra step of filtering or dry hoping. West Coast IPA's are newer to the beer scene, as West coast IPA's are more hop forward and have a dank smell of hops. With a large variety of filtering and dry hoping to add bitterness, while keeping fermentation with fruit added. To sum it up whatever your pallet enjoys there is more flavors of beer then there is actual taste buds on your tongue. With that said, raise your glass high! Cheers!

I admit I surrendered to the bitterness wars. Had a few friends that were big on piney hoppy finishes. I swore off IPAs. Then a local beer blogger explained to me that I don't dislike IPAs, I dislike certain hops. So, I've done some research & sampling & I am IN LOVE WITH juicy NEIPAs with Citra & Mossaic.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 4 жыл бұрын
Glad you found your jam Mike! It is probably not just the hops bringing the flavours you like though - most piney, hoppy beers will use citra too. It's how they are used, and the recipe of the beer. As we say in the video, NEIPAs are as much about the yeast character (stone fruit, sweeter finish) as the hops (used very late and heavily to pronounce juicy notes). So don't write off beers that don't use citra/mosaic, just check to see if it's a New England or West Coast style!

OK, a few moments ago I saw your PORTER exposition, now I'm seeing your presentation on IPAs. Can't say I've been much of an IPA fan, but I have SLIGHTLY warmed to them. Particular to my local pub is one with a heavy dose of grapefruit to it, that grows on me without making my gorge rise from bitterness or the chewing of pine needles. Currently four of the beers on draft at the local there are IPAs of wildly different types. I find newbs that get into IPAs are doing so as a sort of brutal set of training wheels for graduates of the Budweiser crowd, who have discovered some things called FLAVORS and BODY. Frankly I prefer a malt-forward brew, but I have modified my tastes a bit. Well done, keep up the good work, I understand the sacrifices you have to make in your pursuits.

Best West Coast IPA I've had recently is Strong men also cry by Pamona Island. There's been a lot of hype about Pamona, but I found this is the only beer of theirs I've really loved. Every minute matters by Siren was also great. How do you find Deya compares to the classic US NEIPAs like Treehouse and the Alchemist? They've been my brewery of choice during lockdown, and I think their juicy IPAs and DIPAs are just the best beers in the UK at the moment.

Yes we've had a very mixed bag from Pomono but enjoyed a few. Not had that one though. With regards to DEYA, they compare extremely well to Treehouse (I think you meant Treehouse?) - and so do Verdant, Cloudwater, NMBC, North and lots of others. UK beer is as good as US beer, it just doesn't have the strength in depth of the States. The Alchemist make VERY different kinds of beer though - their hazy IPAs are dank, complex and bitter so although they started the revolution they don't really like where it has gone!

@@TheCraftBeerChannel Yes, I meant Treehouse. Must have been picturing the Green can one when I was writing it. The Alchemist (Heady Topper particularly) intrigues me most from your Doc, as how you've described it means that I can't think of a UK beer equivalent (any suggestions would be welcomed). Out of the US NEIPAs I've tried (Lawson's sip of sunshine and a couple of Trillium) I didn't think they were much different from the Cloudwater, Verdant, Deya ones I drink most frequently. The best US beers I've tried in the style came from New York (Finback and Other Half). My experience of Pamona has been varied too, but that West Coast one is well worth it if you find it.

The IBU limit is due to solubility of the bittering agents: primarily iso-alpha-acid as the non isometised alpha acid is comparetively insoluble. Boiling the hops isomerises them making them more soluble, this is a large part of the reason beer is boiled. The solubility limit is approximately 110IBUs. You could put ten times as many hops in and boil hotter for ten times as long, and it wouldn't get any more bitter. There is a way to get more iso-alpha-acid into the beer than the 110IBU solubility limit. I discovered it inadvertently. Definitely not a good idea though. 110IBU is enough.

i think what you're saying is - due to the physics of the molecules in hops that actually cause bitterness once you put in enough hops to equal 110ibus of bitterness no more of the molecules will be able to become "soluble" or mixed into the beer, so it can't taste any more bitter.

Had a banging, caramalt heavy (yes a strong malt backbone is a defining characteristic of a WCIPA!) hybrid from S43 recently (you need to do a vid on them ASAP) called 'Was It A Car Or A Cat I Saw?' which had some lovely piney West Coast characteristics, but was also juicy and soft. Also got some Verdant 'Pigs All Day' on its way to me, and am very excited to get my laughing gear around that! Finally I've also been very much enjoying a Tiny Rebel 'Cali Pale Ale', which was bought for me in keg form as a birthday present for my Perfect Draft (the PD was also bought for me) and was very surprised at how much they had hopped the shit out of that beer, as I usually find Tiny Rebel to be very... mass market focussed. Piney as anything. Sidenote - Jaipur is fucking incredible out of a PD.

Hmmm...quick point in that a well made NEIPA shouldn't have any yeast in it - all that haze should be proteins and pretty flavour neutral but it does affect body.

Back in my hop head days of 2013-2016ish, I for sure got mango juice and pineapple juice notes (alongside the bitter/piney/danky notes) from massive west coast IPAs. But then I tried a Hazy/NEIPA for the first time probably in 2018 and obviously it was WAY MORE juicy, but I suppose it's somewhat subjective based of experience. What I mean is, if you've never had a NEIPA, it's wouldn't be uncommon to find tropical fruit notes and citrus fruit notes in west coast IPAs as I have here all over Southern California.

Dudes, I'm so glad there are different styles of IPAs! I live in Florida (Tampa area, which many consider the capital of craft beer), so we naturally get the east coast style. But I've had a few west coast IPAs and yeah, they're quite different a bit less hoppy, more piney, and perhaps even a bit more body, if that makes sense. We've some super hoppy east coast IPAs here! Even the session IPAs in Florida still have that bite!

Indeed. The first American/West Coast IPA was brewed at Anchor in 1975, but it didn't get very popular to til the heady days of the 90s. The precursor to NEIPA was Heady Topper made in the early 2000s, but it's very different to the versions that came about in around 2014-15 and exploded all over the world.

I’ve heard some beer experts break down the New England IPA style down even further. They talk about what they call the Vermont NEIPA using The Alchemist, Hill Farmstead, and Lawson’s Finest Liquids as the standard bearers. The beers by these breweries do indeed have a bitter flavor on the tongue, which leads me to believe hops are also added on the “hot side” as I’ve heard it called. (I’m not a brewer myself so please correct my terminology if needed.) Many other breweries in this area (I’m in NYC) make full-bodied, hazy IPAs that add juiciness but don’t eliminate bitterness. Heady Topper is certainly a bitter beer as are some of my favorites like Wrench by Industrial Arts and the fantastic Magnetic series by Grimm. Other breweries make pure juice, which I am very much not a fan of. Do you make a distinction between NEIPAs that retain bitterness but balance out the beer with haze, body and juiciness and those that eliminate bitterness altogether?
@TheCraftBeerChannel
@TheCraftBeerChannel 4 жыл бұрын
We don't really think a beer can be strongly bitter and still called an NEIPA. The point of this style is to accentuate the juicy hop and yeast characters and ensure as smooth a finish as possible. If you add bitterness in there you are moving away from that style (even if it can be delicious). So there is a bit of a grey area between West Coast and New England beers - hazy, juicy but bitter beer. Not sure Vermont NEIPA is a good name for it, but we should probably find one!

That is not a NEIPA. They are cloudy it’s true and do have a sense of wheat to them, but a true NEIPA from New England do not have fruit forward. If anything they reside in the back if at all and they do have a bitterness to them. Real NEIPA have a sense of funk to them. Almost like a cheese. They are also dense and have that silliness but also a high ABV, bunch like a double or even a triple. Many people dislike them for this reason, but like anything if you develop a taste for them they are nuanced and delicious. I really love the 1620 from Ipswich brewery. I get a couple growlers when there because I can’t get it around here, which is a shame but it definitely makes me look forward to my annual trip to the north shore ma. That and the fired clams. Cheers!

The worst beer (to me) I ever had was a 'free' pk of Vt's "Frost Beer Works" "Mosaic" and "Pony Boy." I learned I hate Mosaic hops: citrusy grapefruit, with penetrating Sauterne sour wine clinging tastes. WCIPA: I do like caramel malt alot. Some WCIPA's seem (to me) to 'just throw in too much, as if 'More was always better.' I like British-Irish caramel-malt red ales/beer,s like Sam Adams Octoberfest, & Harpoon, &Ales, & Pilseners, refreshing German/Danish style beers. I just found your channel. I hope you have shows on craft beers for people who usually don't like either the orange/grapefruit New England IPAs or the extra-whallopy WCIPAs.

I've seen a bunch of videos where the guy on the left just nods and agrees with what he says. It feels like the talkative, professor-like guy doesn't leave space for the other guy to expose what he has to say. It's sad because it seems he could also add a lot to the show. At some extent, the video feel like a monologue from the guy on the right.

I first thought wow I will love Vermont IPAs, what these used to be called a decade ago I believe. I expected a maltier IPA compared to the hop bite of the West Coast IPA....what I get from most of these hazy IPAs is juice bomb. Now, don't get me wrong...there are some breweries that really get New England IPAs right where the flavor is subtle and balanced.....but far too often, you get breweries who just join the hype train and they brew hazy IPAs they should have written off as failed experiments.

The quality of NEIPA as a whole is extremely shaky because (contrary to what the first critics all complained) they are extremely hard to make - stable haze, hop aroma, balance etc are all hard to achieve, not to mention the fact it can oxidise like lightning. Not sure I'd ever look for subtlety in an NEIPA though - I want that juice!
