My favorite. Just brewed my 49th batch (extract). I lapsed a couple of batches ago and forgot to add the 2oz of Centennial at flame out, so I saved it for the dry hop, and the result was excellent. Since then I modified the hop schedule to add 1 oz Centennial at flameout and 2 oz Centennial and 1 oz Simcoe at dry hop. This kit has been a family favorite for many years.

Fresh, malty, slight Belgian ale aromas, and a light hoppy IPA backbone. My favorite kit so far. Gonna definitely brew this again! My friends keep asking for more of my "Fraíche SIPA!"

After 3 weeks layering tares,as good as any micro brew! Patience grasshopper ... your beer will taste much better waiting till it's ready. Can't rush greatness.

Great recipe. I did the extract version and was very pleased. Next I am going to try the all grain. Cheers.

Delicious beer. Beautiful color with a great head.

I was not prepared for the overwhelmingly successful response that this recipe generated. 5 gals went fast and my friends are still asking if I have any more.On day 9, I dry-hopped with 1 oz each of Centennial & Simcoe as per directions for 3-5 days. However, I did not have time to keg until day 19. (10 days later!) I waited a day at 68d and then chilled at 38d with CO2 at 20lb.On day 23, sampled a surprisingly refreshing, non-bitter taste though it was still a little 'green.'On day 25, officially enjoyed with friends and it was the number one choice for 90% of the beer drinkers. That keg was emptied before the party ended. One friend who loves stouts and another wine, were constantly at that keg for refills and to me, was a great compliment. ABV 6.8% Simcoe is amazing!

Has good flavor and a lower ABV%. Nice IPA flavor for a summer day since it is not too heavy.

This is only my 4th brew, but I have to say this is my favorite! Great hops flavor, excellent aroma and love the color. I will be ordering another one, so that when this one is gone, the other will be ready for drinking. If you like IPA's, try this kit, you won't be disappointed.

I've been eyeballing this one for a long time and finally ordered and brewed it. I was not disappointed. The first thing I noticed after pouring was the beautiful light color and clean white head. The aroma of the Centennial and Simcoe is awesome. It's almost one of those beers you could be satisfied just smelling. It's an easy drinking IPA that won't knock you on your rear. I definitely recommend it.

This is really a good IPA. Great blend of hops, not too bitter at all. Mostly nose feel especially with the dry hop. This is a good thing since the body is a little light malt wise. Great for hop heads who want to be able to have a few, or more... Certainly no kick your butt double IPA, but that's exactly what you need some times. Pitched dry yeast US-04, bottled at 2 weeks, perfect flavor after a month. Worth trying for anyone looking for a light IPA.

I like this easy to make IPA. With he secondary hopping, it;s 'great. I'd do this one again

I'm a newb brewer but with 30 plus brews come and gone in the nine months since I started. I accidentally over-diluted an early batch and have since had all my brews come in on the heavy side. So with a fridge full of strong porters and double IPAs I was looking for something I could consume and still function. This session IPA has a beautiful light color and that nice hop nose. Very drinkable, but still has a lot of personality. My first batch came out 5.6% abv. I know there will be more to come.

Re-ordered this one. Best home-brew I've cooked up yet! Even known hop-haters enjoyed this one cold. Hoppy aromas and flavors really come out if you let it warm slightly before drinking, and ~2wk bottle-conditioning is a must if you want to actually taste all the awesome flavors. I left it dry-hop for a couple extra days - mainly due to laziness, but it turned out great!

Nice beer, when kegging it I thought it tasted and smelled great. After 1 week in the keg it started smelling a little grassy. Also the hop flavor seems to be dissipating the longer it sits. This is only my 3rd brew, so I am still a newb, so maybe it is me.

Even after coming up short on my OG (1.045) and dry hopping just before fermentation finished out (7 days in), I was amazed at how delicious this one turned out! Great nose feel with all of the hop aromas distinctly coming through. Finishes very smooth and well balanced like your standard IPA, but at 4.5% it's hard to have just one! Will definitely be ordering this again soon.Bottle conditioned at 70* for 2 weeks.
