Brewing a Single Hop Galaxy IPA | Grain to Glass | Classic Styles | Single Hop

In this video, I brewed a single hop American #IPA with #Galaxy hops, proving to be an awesome juicy, hoppy, beer. This video covers the recipe, the brew, the fermentation and the final tasting. Galaxy is an Australian high-alpha hop that I’ve ben wanting to use for a while, and making a single-hop IPA or pale ale is a great way to figure out a certain hop’s characteristics. This brew included a first-wort hop addition and several others at 20, 10 and 0 min plus a dry hop. Additionally, I added some malt complexity with some flaked rye and crystal 10. Overall this beer was an excellent IPA and I really enjoyed both the process and the beer. The only downside was a mild haze from the dry-hopping (the beer was modeled after west coast style IPAs and was supposed to be clear).
