Here's the full recipe: www.clawhammer...
The kegs are running low in the office and summer is almost here, so we needed an easy drinking beer that would be ready ASAP. That's why we brewed up a hazy Session IPA, a perfect beer for hot days outside.
We only used one hop, Lemondrop, and put it in as a whirlpool addition. These hops will hopefully give our beer a refreshing, citrus flavor. Watch the video to see a tasting at the end or read our recipe and make it yourself!

Brewed up a mini-mash version of this, and tasted first bottle today. Turned out pretty good as described, good summer beer. I will be drinking this while my quad ages.
Mini-mash: Added 1 lb of Carapils as someone had recommended in the comments.
Replaced the 6 lbs of Pilsner with 1.6 lbs of Pilsner + 3.3 lb Briess Pilsen Light LME
OG:1.044, 5 gallon. 2 days later dryhopped and left it in (to reduce oxidation, since wasn't going to leave it in the fermenter long). Bottled on day 8. FG:1.012 , 4.5 gallons. Drank one 13 days later.
“Perfect for yard work”.... most American thing I’ve heard in a while!
I’d LOVE to have one of these fancy brew systems but I do take pride in making really good beer using entry level fermenters, $20 5 gallon brew kettle, $150 propane burner setup and $50 corny kegs. Makes people all that much more impressed when you tell non beer makers “Thanks, I made that with a stock pot and some plastic buckets basically” hahahahaha. Although I did just upgrade to a $50 plastic pressure fermenter that will also let me hook Co2 up to it to force transfer it using a floating dip tube into a co2 filled keg. ZERO OXIDATION
Just made this, its fermenting rn :0)
Update, the beer is done and its amazingly fresh, couldve done with a slight increase in the non-fermentable grain to get more body, sligtly more pilzner to get the alcohol up a touch, and slightly more boiled hops for more bitterness. My recommendation if youre making it for yourself. Its light and fresh as it is, but it tastes closer to a week cider as this.
Old video watched for the 20th time lol going to make 2 1/2 gallons this weekend! Love you guys make some more videos!!!!!!
These videos are amazing quality and super easy to follow for someone just getting into brewing. Love the setup too, might have to check it out!
Brewed this last month and drinking it now, scaled down to 19l batch and brewed on my Brewzilla. Great tasting beer with subtle lemon notes, very refreshing. Will go well in the Australian summer 👍 cheers lads 🍻
what a wholesome yt channel
Just brewed this and it’s currently fermenting. Very excited.
the space for producing beer is very beautiful. congratulations for the videos.
You guys and girls do a great job over at claw hammer, awesome education for a home brewing enthusiast like me, keep on keeping on dudes and dudettes
Adoro os vídeos de vocês. Postem mais vezes por favor. ✌️

Хорошая работа, приятная подача.
Can you do a walkthrough of your keezer build? Would love to see what you guys have going on behind that board!
very cool. looks like a very practical and easy brewing set up.
Cracking brew day and cracking pint at the end of it, might have to do this one with the lemon hops I’ve got.
Going to make this bad boy tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe!! Fist time using lemon drop, and I can't wait to try it out!
Nice 👍🏻 as always!
I just got a bunch of Lemon Drop freebies at NHC was thinking about a lemon wheat.
I love claw hammer, your videos are the best.
Brewed and Love it. 3.7 abv.
I like how you guys aerate your wort. Cheers
Great to see you again!!
Im gonna try this.
Just brewed this this past Saturday can't wait to see how it turns out
How did it turn out?
@@Raddadbrewing it's good but I'm not a huge IPA guy so this was my first IPA I've ever brewed, but like I said it's good but I don't get any hops at all so idk what I did wrong but I 100% will try again to see if I can get a better result
@@williejohnwhite good call. Did you whirlpool all the hop additions?
@@Raddadbrewing nope just kind of put them in and let the sit
Awesome guys love ur videos I’m all the way down here in New Zealand, just brewed a pale ale smash mosaic tasting really good , keep up the hard work 🍺👍
We love the Mosaic
Excellent Beard! Awesome intro video for new homebrewers! well done
Hey guys I saw an can seamer on one of your videos, can you make a video on it? Thanksssss
Looks amazing! I haven’t tried lemon drop yet. Have to do it. Saw they had it at my local Homebrew shop. Cheers!
I recommend it for sure
Damn, that's some majestic beard. As someone who looks like a snake trying to eat a broom when I let my facial hair grow, I'm super jelly.
that made laugh....great visual
Best one yet!
Very cool...cheers
I could go for some of this right now!!
"if you're better than us" LOL!!!!
I used Kevick Yeast on this. Came out to be 2.5% beer after one week
I may have to make this is
Awesome video again, cheers!
very nice!
Another great video. Could you guys do a video of cleaning your system? Would be super helpful
That is a great idea. I will add that to the list. Thanks!
I hope to see your system in 15 gallons electric mash only , but for boiling the brewer use his own propane burner in his home.
По поводу оборудования, не возникает ли трудности в отмывании охладителя?
Great video . I once tried to brew this recipe with powdered water but I didn't know what to add to it.
Toonces The Cat you need to add powdered malt and powdered hops too, duh
How about adding a couple bags of actual crushed lemon drops? Would that boost the alcohol and give it more lemon flavor?
I see your brew system are meant to be attached to a wall or the like, why not put some studs on the kettle like grainfather and make all the bits fit on the kettle, it would solve problems for those of us with limited space and help storage.
Just brewed a lemon drop saison.
Now this I find interesting? Any spices? Recipe?
You sir have a truly fantastic man beard
Did you deliberately write down 4.20 instead of 4.2? :'D
Made a batch of Strawberry Wine today and I was thinking I needed to make a crushable summer beer and I remembered this video.
Would you do anything differently with this recipe if you are going to remake it?
Hey guys i love the sound of this beer what do you guys think if it was fermented with a lager yeast something like 34/70 or a dry lager yeast ?
Were the dry hops added during primary or secondary fermentation?
wait a minute , added no hops during the 60 min boil ? only added the lemon hops after 60 min ?
the bitterness come from the dry hopping
Alexandre forget ahh ok I always thought that dry hopping does not affect the bitterness . Interesting 🤔 thanks 🍻
It seems like a nice Summer Beer. thanks for your video. But I do have a question for you that if there's any Substitute for the IMPERIAL A24 DRY HOP YEAST? Dry Yeast will be great! Thanks a lot!
i was wondering does lemon drop have a very pronounces flavor or is it subtle? been interested in trying for a good while now. other then that ive been on the hunt for red robin 1969 lager clone which im thinking they use an addition of lemon drop considering what i remember by the taste and reviews online. but not sure when to use it in a lager or if its better dry hopped and how much do i add to get the lemony flavor but not to overdue it. too bad red robin doesnt sell it anymore. it was a stand out beer and it only last a while until they discontinued it a few years ago which im not sure why. from what i read online its got 18 ibu and it was from new belgium brewing co.
Quick question. How do you guys dry-hop? Do you open the carboy and let air in when throwing in the hops? If yes, could this harm the fermentation process? Thanks!
dude. Cucumber crush by 10 barrel is awesome. ;)
Recipe say Medium Bitterness - 40 - 55 IBUs
I drop 100g on 20 min hop stand to calculator and i got like 20IBU tops.............
Sounds right, in reality this is the bitterness from the cohumulones, which is also a part of dry hopping. I don't know what they were thinking. There is virtually no isomerization occurring under 180F.
The style is "medium bitterness" according to the craft brewers association. We were a bit outside of the style on this one.
Hey. Why did you do a full 60 minute boil if you didn't add any hops until the whirlpool? My understanding was the only reason you boil if you're not putting hops into the boil is to sterilise so you only need to do for 15 minutes or so? Cheers.
I do not keg my beer and add carbonation. When I bottle my beer should I just add sugar for fermentation and to add carbonation?
For carbonation? Yes
Hello, I'm from Spain, could you give me the recipe in kilometers or grams, since here it is measured, thank you, my family likes lemon a lot
Just wandering how not buttering adding hops to the boil keep this from being to sweet?
What kind of brewhouse efficiency are you guys getting with your BIAB system? I know typically efficiency is usually lower in BIAB systems but of course you get an easier brew day out it and its only a couple more pounds of grain.
Why boiling wort 60 min without hops?
I found that weird too. Usually, there is at least one addition. But I guess the logic is to not make the beer bitter but to make it super hoppy and aromatic instead. The earlier you add the hops, the more time they are in the wort and thus release more alpha acids, making the resulting beer more bitter. The later additions of hops don't really add that much to the bitterness (and flavor for that matter, although such large quantities will give it a punch, especially with cool super aromatic hops like Mosaic, Galaxy) but mostly contribute to the aroma. However, in my experience, this beer better be consumed fast, because the longer it sits, the more of the aroma will fade. As it is with all IPA's and other hoppy beer variations. Hope this helps. Have a good one.
But it's an IPA, there should be some bitterness.
the market trends nowadays say otherwise
I actually make all my IPA's without boil hops these days. I do 2 oz. in strike water, 4 oz. at 90F cool down after boil, and 6 oz. of dry-hop. I don't use a spider either.
He probably wanted to boil off some water to increase the gravity of the wort. But yeah, not hops in the boil makes it not a true IPA in my opinion as that is where a lot of bitterness comes from.
Anyone know where I can find that grain mesh colander that he's using by itself?
Send us an email info at clawhammersupply.com . We should have them our site available for purchase in the next few weeks.
Do you guys rinse your grain? Sparge?
No bittering hops? Love the equipment. Have a bigger rig but would put my buddies on to yours.
Not on this beer--- we did get a decent amount of bitterness from the whirlpool additions.
+all hops give bitterness
When I put this into Beersmith, I am only getting like 12IBUs from the whirlpool hops. Not sure how you are getting 40-50 IBUs from just that. If I add an oz of Lemondrop as a bittering hop, still only brings it up to about 35 IBUs
@@viper29ca I'm having an issue with this in beersmith too, on their board they say it hits 22IBU, but cant see how. My 1/2 batch tastes fine however so YMV
Are you the dude from the power puff girls?
Can you tell me what yeast i could yeast in like white labs or other because in eastern Canada we dont have Imperial A24 Yeast at all . Ps thanks and love your brew system but missing one little gadget a rope hoist for your brew basket above your pot .
Not Clawhammer but I do know the A24 "Dryhop" is actually a blend of 2 yeasts, their barbarian (A04) and citrus (A20). Afaik Barbarian is the same as Conan/vermont/burlington yeast and Citrus is a wild sacc
Like jdtg said, it's a blend of the Conan strain and IOY A20, which is the same as WLP644 saccharomyces "bruxellensis" trois. The yeast bay's funktown pale ale yeast is the same blend. You can get conan from a number of different labs, just google it, or substitute with any english heavy ester producing yeast, like wy1318, white labs burlington ale, etc
hello friend, I'm from Peru and I love your videos I would like to know where I can buy your brewing equipment since I love how practical it is, I would appreciate it if you could answer me

thanks for the video! got a question. after the boil can the pump recirculate the hot temperature? thanks for the help!
would it be cool to add lemon juice to the beer to try and add more lemon zest to the beer?
Yes, absolutely. Zest is most commonly added. Please do this and let us know how it goes!
how much space do you need? and do you need to do everything in a kitchen?
Looks great! What is the screen/vessel called that you put the hops into? It's a great idea, I'd love to use that over muslin bags
A hop basket. Email Emmet at info@clawhammersupply.com for a link to one.
Just made this beer! Currently cold crashing, but when I tried my sample I tasted a lotttt of the pilsner used in the recipe. Is this normal? Or will it even out to be more citrusy once I carb it? This is my first time homebrewing so I hope it turns out alright! Thanks!
What is the cylinder for fermentig?
Another great video. Our set up is very similar..
You guys not do a sparge then?
Just full mash
We usually don't sparge-- unless we have a really big grain bill and need to hold some water back to fit everything in the kettle.
What did you dry hop with the last 3 days of fermentation?
Very amateur brewer here but getting into all grain and was wondering why no sugar was added. Is this becaise its a session ipa as oppose to true ipa... or is it all the do with the grains used.... any help would be appreciated i see recipes for both and can not understand why.
Sugar is created during the mash. No extra sugar is necessary due to the low ABV. Plenty in the grains.
Im thinking of trying this for summer, do you think adding lactose would give it almost a lemonade type taste?
Hmmm... Maybe. Good idea.
Looks like very poor head retention and or it was undercarbed??
I added 1lb of carapils to the grain bill to solve the issue. Turned out great.
@@stephenbailey3081 any idea what the carapils does to make it retain head?
@@thegingerpowerranger it adds resistant dextrines, proteins, non-starch polysac-charides , and other substances to the wort and beer. AKA Chemistry
@@stephenbailey3081 very cool - I need to read more about this. Thank you for taking the time to reply
I'm wondering how you claim 40-55 IBUs, when all hops are added under isomerization temps (
Alex the information around this is all over the place from people that agree with you to people that have "proven" in a lab that it's false. Even temps swing in a big range when it's brought up (where different people say isomerization "stops"). In reality I don't think anyone really has factual information on hop isomerization below 180*. Their IBU is definitely a guess, I've made beers with only whirlpool/dry hops that have more perceived bitterness than beers that calculated a much higher actual IBU. Obviously the whirlpool/dry hop beer had a lot more hops per gallon.
In the end I have decided that unless tested in a lab IBUs are a guess at best regardless of the temp their added at.
The beer STYLE (hazy IPA) is generally in the range of 40-55 IBUs. If we said that this beer was 40-55 in the video, we misspoke. This beer had super low IBUs. It still had tons of hop flavors and aroma coming through. I can't really speak to the yeast. We'll have to use it again. What i will says we liked the lemon drop hops but didn't love them.
Maybe try raising the dry hopping next time. This style screams for huge dry hopping additions to get where it needs to be. Maybe try 8oz next time to see where it gets you.
Where can I get a set up like this one?
i want to buy hop,can you help me
Can you use lemon drop hop to make a DIPA? I’m new to brewing so not sure if hop type effects abv, I’m sure it’s just the yeast
Saccarappa Recording Studios abv is affected by the amount of sugar consumed by the yeast. So not so much yeast as your fermentables like grain amount and type, sugar type, etc.
Nice video! I'd like to make it myself but I kinda have a problem getting those hops. Anyway I noticed you spray the wort when reciculating, that produces oxidation, you may wanna add something that puts the entry of wort under liquid level.
I'll keep watching your content, keep up the good work
I’m trying to get into home brewing anybody have any links for starting packs that are worth the time and money?

After the fermentation. When you will fill it in bottles. How long should it rest in the Bottle ? Can someone help me?
3 weeks was enough for me
@@Stephen160888 Did you leave it in the mixing tank for 13 days? Or bottled it directly after fermentation?
Thank you
@@jasonseiler1985 primary fermentation 10 days and then bottled with priming sugar (5g/L table sugar). It tastes like a light cider
@@Stephen160888 thanks mate for your help.
Hola. En qué tiempo pones los lúpulos? Haces Dry Hopping ?
single drop hops, se hace el dry hopping cuando se termina de macerar y se enfría el mosto
Looks like you ferment inside an old freezer ...that's turned off of course but the idea is just insulation against variable temperature right?
its probably a Keezer a old chest freezer thats moded so it can stay at a set temperature
Yep.
Hi, guys! Do you have the link where I can buy this fermenter?
We don't!
I'm indonesian watching this makes me question alot
Where can a person get the lemon drop
Hops?
Local brew shop should have it. Or you probably can order it on the interwebs.
Where is your sparge water coming from?
You mean the water that's coming out of the spray nozzle? It's pulled from the bottom of the kettle with a pump and gets recirculated through the grain bed. All of the water we need is added to the kettle at the start of the brew day and we don't add any more unless the grain bill is really big. This is a no-sparge brew method.
What book ar yall manly using fo your brews I really want to try this lemon drop brew
im sure this isnt in any book. Using Brewers Friend and learn to make recipes
@@Adol666 I made 2 years back it turned out well
Only hop stand? where is all the bitternes? i guess those lemon hops are bitter AF
We were going for mostly aroma. But yes, the lemon drop hops are quite strong.
you also achieve some bitterness below 190F, and with dry hop additions. this style uses so many hops that enough bitterness is created and using a traditional 60 minute addition would be overkill and ruin the fruity and juicy character
I wonder, do you guys sparge in this system or not...🤷🏽
The system has a recirculation pump, so no need to sparge.
Ok 👍
I just brewed this beer, my question is on your gravity readings. Am I missing something here? How does SG 1.034 & FG 1.010 equal 4.2%?
My SG was 1.040 and FG 1.010, to me that's a 3.9% ABV beer, no?
I'm using Brewer's friend online ABV calculator.
Their OG was 1.042. Which accordingly to brewers friend will land on 4.2%, if FG gets to 1.010.
Website recipe says different. Unless it’s a typo on their end when they put it up.
Maybe they were shooting for 1.034 and got 1.042. You don't always land your OG where the recipe tells you right?
Haze but no water adjustment ?
Check the website link for the water profile we used-- we do adjust the water.
