The ULTIMATE CROWD PLEASER: American Amber Ale | Simcoe Hops | Grain to Glass | Classic Styles

My Local Homebrew Shop (3 day shipping on orders!): www.boomchugalug.com

In this video, I brewed a classic American Amber Ale with only Simcoe hops on National Homebrew Day for the AHA Big Brew 2020! This is one of the original American craft beer styles and makes for a very pleasing beer for most people. Not only is it a crowd pleaser but it also happens to be very easy to brew! My result ended up being a nicely balanced beer that tasted oddly similar to Sam Adams Boston Lager. I was hoping Simcoe would add a pine-like character in the flavor and aroma of the final beer, but that ended up manifesting as subtle grapefruit instead. I found that after letting the beer age a while, I actually ended up liking it way more than when I filmed it. I really enjoyed this brew and hope you can as well!
