Pale Ales and IPAs are among the most popular beer styles in the world, known for their hop-forward character, balanced malt backbone, and a wide range of aromas and flavors. Originating from England and later revolutionized in the United States, these styles emphasize the use of aromatic and bittering hops, making them a favorite among hop lovers.
Our Pale Ales & IPA Recipe Kits include both extract and all-grain options, developed by SoCal Brewing Supply and our trusted collaborators. Many of these recipes are award-winning, ensuring high-quality results for homebrewers of all skill levels.
Pale Ales and IPAs typically ferment in the mid-60s°F range, depending on the yeast strain, with proper temperature control enhancing hop aroma and attenuation.
Featured Styles:
American Pale Ale: A well-balanced, easy-drinking beer with citrusy, piney, and floral hop notes supported by a light to medium malt body.
English Pale Ale (ESB): A maltier, more balanced take on pale ales, featuring earthy, herbal hop flavors with a smooth caramel malt backbone.
West Coast IPA: A bold, hop-forward IPA with high bitterness, crisp mouthfeel, and strong citrus, pine, and resinous hop flavors.
New England IPA (Hazy IPA): A juicy, aromatic IPA with low bitterness, soft mouthfeel, and intense tropical and stone fruit hop character.
Session IPA: A lower-ABV IPA designed for drinkability while still delivering big hop aroma and flavor.
Double IPA (DIPA): A high-ABV, aggressively hopped IPA with intense bitterness, complex hop layers, and a dry finish.
Each recipe kit includes high-quality malt, hops, and yeast, along with detailed instructions to help brewers achieve the perfect balance of flavor, aroma, and bitterness in their Pale Ale or IPA.
