What recipe would I use to get close to this?

I got this from Tescos and I was shocked at how nice it was does anyone have a recipe that's similar?

the back label says it is made using scots ale malted barley, first gold hops, styrian goldings hops and cascade hops but I don't have the first clue how much of each I would use

It's alright innit GTO

Aleman recently sent me one of his IPA's and it was a stunner IMO and only 3 months old. It had more body than the Tes**s IPA.

Might be worth pming him for the recipe

Actually, here's the recipe thread

clicky

being made on 911 last year, its aging nicely . . . . although I haven't has a sample since the Northern Craftbrewers in January where it was slated

I liked the taste and that's all that matters to me

I'll certainly be giving it a go

Not really, it was the selection meet for the CBA regional group comp to be held this weekend, and my beer was Waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy out of the style . . . . Well, all we were told Was English Pale Ale 1.050-55 . . . what I suspect they were after was was a landlord type beer NOT a historical Imperial Pale Ale.

Aleman has kindly re-jigged this recipe to suit my kit and it's going to be my second AG with my first being HH's bitter (seems to be favourite for fist AG). Brewery's almost finished and with health permitting first AG next week and second the week after, thanks for all the recipes and lots of photos to come
