    Anyone done/seen a bone-a-fide pale ale AG recipe?

    Oh, you were referring to the actual name of the beer, rather than a true "bona fide" version. There doesn't seem to be a clone recipe out there, but since it recently received such great reviews, I would suspect that there might be some clone attempts in the near future. There is a little information that can be used as a start:

    ABV: 5.5%
    IBU: 38
    Hops: Cascade, Centennial and Chinook.
    Lots of dry hopping.

    Where did you find the hops listed?
    Their website says
    This West Coast Style Pale Ale is brewed for a big hoppy finish. Golden to copper in color. The malts used to create this beer balance nicely with the Citra hops that are used. The floral aroma should jump out of the glass thanks to the copious quantities of hops used in the dry hop process. If you are a “hop head”, hop on!!!

    @suavo, I would suggest that you send an e-mail to Boneyard Brewing and request information. I would recommend that you explicitly mention that you are a homebrewer and that you would like to brew a version of Bona-a-Fide Pale Ale. Many (most?) of the craft brewers are former homebrewers and so they have an appreciation of the passion we have for our hobby. The worst case scenario is that they don't provide information.

    This is worth a try IMO.

    Cheers!
