Notes

Very happy with this recipe, not a perfect feral slyfox clone but pretty close. Got the ingredients from Brendan during a brewery tour but not the exact hop quants/timings.

Thanks for adding this recipe. I was looking for a Sly Fox clone and read where Feral use "Galaxy, Mosaic and Amarillo"

I'm interested it brewing this,
What would you say is different between your clone and theirs?
Their website gives nothing away apart from low bitterness - would you say your 60 ibu is too high compared to theirs?

Hi Bosvelk, from distant memory of a side by side comparison my clone has a thicker mouth feel but most in our group couldn't pick the odd one out in a blind triangle. I don't tend to bother with clairfiers or filtering. I've seen some guys on other forums tweak this recipe using amarillo, galaxy and mosaic after finding a feral brewery article where they mention this is the official dry hop belend they have settled on long term. As for the IBU, no, I think it's spot on. It seems high on paper but doesn't taste like a 60 at all, I don't think Nelson Sauvin imparts as much bittering effect as it's AA content suggest it should. The hidden forumla for unifying IBU calculations and subjective opinion continues to evaid me.

Thanks Ricey, I'm going to do a version 4 with slightly adjusted hop quantities and the dry hop blend noted in this article and report back.
