Notes

Full-bodied with extreme hop character, the explosive citrus, pine and grapefruit resins are barely balanced by a huge 10% ABV.

Featuring three hop shots and 19oz of hops from nearly every iconic American favorite; Amarillo, Columbus, Cascade, Simcoe and Centennial...impressionable palates beware!

Brewing Notes:

  • A yeast starter and 2-stage fermentation is highly recommended.
  • 6 gallon batch size, to accommodate the wort losses due to the ridiculous amount of hops
  • 90 minute boil
  • 6 lbs Pilsen malt syrup (15 min late addition)
  • 1.6 lbs Corn Suger (0 min late addition)
