This is the first one I've seen. Admittedly I've never looked for it, bit I'll probably give this a shot. I've never had the official Russian River Younger despite living just 15 mins away from their pub. I just w9nt stand in line for 6 hours for a couple of beers. :Do

badogg, a couple of suggestions if you choose to brew this one:

 

- swap out a lb of the 2-row and replace w/ a lb of cane sugar, (added to the boil near the end, say, 5-10 min left in the boil)

 

- for a beer this big, i'd mash lower than 152; i'd suggest ~149, and let the mash rest for a good 90 minutes

 

Just my $0.02; disregard if you want.

RR is also using hop extract and I am would imagine the hops are more late than what is posted in that recipe. 8oz is pretty low for a tripple ipa imo. Pretty sure younger gets three doses of dryhops too.

yeah, I'd skip 45, 30 and probably 15 and move all of those hops towards the end of the boil and increase the dry hop a bit.

 

hopshot might be a nice thing to use but otherwise just use something with a really high AA.
