This beer will be your hop dream, your hop nightmare, your hop dream vacation, your fortress of hoptitude... it will be an all out tongue ravaging of blatant, brutal bitterness with brazen brashness of boldly, beautiful, bountiful bodacious hops. Am I going over the top with this? Did we do too much? Hell no! What did we do, you ask? Simple, jacked the crap out of an IPA.
3 oz of hops for an IPA? Forget that! Our boil includes 9 oz of hops that were continually added over the course of 90 minutes with a mixture made up 4 oz columbus hops, 3 oz cascade, 1 oz glacier, and 1 oz perle.
Add to that an about 11.5 lbs of malt, maple syrup, and honey and you have got yourself one big ass beer! To top it off... after racking to a secondary fermenter, this beer will be dry hopped with 2 oz of cascade hops.
We're anticipating a very big Imperial IPA, but with the way Paleolithic (Old Van) turned out, we're not gonna jumped to conclusions on this one. We'll give you an update on it in about a month or so.
