Mangrove Jack’s Recipe Range gives you a flexible new way to brew at home. Start with one of six numbered malt extract cans, then combine it with a Mangrove Jack’s Hop Blend, Brew Enhancer and Craft Series Yeast to create one of more than 40 different recipes. The formula stays the same — Can + Hop Blend + Enhancer + Craft Series Yeast = Recipe — but the beer you make is entirely up to you.

Mangrove Jack’s H3 West Coast Hop Blend combines Columbus, Comet and Simcoe hop pellets in one ready-to-use sachet, delivering a resinous, pine-forward character without the need to source and weigh three separate hop varieties.

Add it directly to the fermenter once your beer reaches the specific gravity stated in your chosen recipe. There is no need to stir; simply allow the hops a few days to infuse before bottling or kegging.

What Does H3 West Coast Add?

H3 West Coast contributes:

• Pine
• Resin
• Citrus
• A bold, classic West Coast hop character

The combination of Columbus, Comet and Simcoe makes this blend particularly well suited to assertive American-style pale ales, IPAs and darker hop-forward beers.

How to Use

Add the hop pellets directly to the fermenter once the beer reaches the specific gravity stated in the relevant Mangrove Jack’s Recipe Range instructions.

There is no need to stir the hops into the beer. Leave them in contact with the beer for the period specified in the recipe, then package as normal once fermentation is complete.

Use the full sachet, multiple sachets or the specified portion depending on the recipe you are following.

Mangrove Jack’s Recommended Recipe: Black IPA

Mangrove Jack’s recommends using H3 West Coast Hop Blend in the following combination:

• Can: 3 India Pale Ale
• Hop Blend: 1 x H3 West Coast Hop Sachet
• Enhancer: E3 Dark Enhancer
• Yeast: M44 West Coast Ale Yeast
• Makes: 18 litres
• Approximate ABV: 5.8%

The H3 West Coast Hop Blend adds pine, resin and citrus character to the firm bitterness of 3 India Pale Ale. E3 Dark Enhancer adds colour, body and deeper malt character, while M44 West Coast Ale Yeast provides the clean fermentation profile needed to keep the hops prominent.

Suitable Beer Styles

H3 West Coast works particularly well in:

• Black IPA
• West Coast IPA
• American IPA
• American Pale Ale
• Cascadian Dark Ale
