Hello everyone, I am writing from Rome and as you are a fan of craft beer.
One of my favorite styles is undoubtedly the Indian Pale ale, and for some time I'm developing my own recipe.
I would like to create a very traditional beer, I do not like the changes that in recent years have given the beer with yeast and or American hops Slovenian or even Japanese.

I ask you then what are the malts to use, hops and yeast best recommended for a real traditional English IPA.

Thank you very much.

ok thanks, while for a non-commercial or yeast maybe little known? which do you recommend?

LordEoin

if you can't get those yeasts, then try Danstar Nottingham dry yeast. Should be fine :)

Look for a clone recipe of Fuller's IPA (also known as Bengal Lancer). Excellent English ipa

In Italy I checked and there is no manufacturer that this yeast.
After I get it online? "Burton Ale (White Labs #WLP023)"
however, in my recipe that I'm taking to the tradition ipa I put these malts:

Pale
Maris Otter
Crystal 80L about 2%
CaraVienna about 4%
Carapils about 4%
Chocolate (0.5%)

Advice about it? maybe raise some malt for preferring another.
thanks .

Thank you very much! :)

someone says to me regarding my recipe do you recommend to add or take away?

If you email white labs they might be able to tell you where you can get the liquid yeast closer to you.
