100+ Ibu Recipies

You probably don't need over a kilogram of 11 different hops either.

But somehow, I don't think that's the point...

Definitely right. There is a point where "need" gets thrown out the window and we move on to a whole different realm -- desire? lust? addiction? Not sure what to call it, but it definitely is a sickness! :super:

I haven't brewed in about a month, so am looking forward to doing two Saturday. The first will be a double batch of 100% Mt. Hood Pilsner, the second will be this bad boy, a clone of Three Floyds Dreadnaught IPA.

Cheers.

I thought you were going to put some hops in there!?!?!

Now now cj, no swearing in here

Life has gotten in the way over the last few weeks, so this beer (Infinity +1) has sat waiting for some attention.
Tonight it got it. A taste and it is good. Very good. Huge flavour and bitterness, with a very sweet hop aroma. Gravity is down to 1.010 so it has broken the 11% barrier (I was aiming for 10% ).
Did it need more ? No
Did I want it to have more ? Yes
Just dry hopped it with 15gr of Centennial 8.8%, 15gr Columbus 11.1% and 15gr of Warrior 14.8%.
Will see how she is tasting in a couple of days before adding just a little bit more

Beers,
Doc

PS: My wife (who doesn't drink beer) saw the sample sitting on the bench and asked if she could try a sample. I told her it was the most intensely hoppy beer, but she tried. She is still screwing up her face and downing any liquid she can find to get the hop taste out of her mouth
Ironically my mother has been staying the last couple of weeks, and I gave her a RyeIPA and a Hopburst IPA (both over 100IBU's) and I wish I had a camera ready for those reactions too. I've definitely gone throught he Lupulin Threshold Shift.

Awesome Doc,

Was just sat here this evening, thinking I hadn't heard any updates... that's fantastic attenuation & the beer sounds incredible, gotta build myself a hopback. Mine is tasting lovely in the fermenter, got to stop drinking it or I won't have enough to fill the keg... hoping i achieve similar attenuation, it's down to 1022 today...

Cheers Ross

 

[Doc]

I'm very impressed with the attenutation Ross, especially for the WLP001/WLP051 blend. Paid to just leave it alone for a few weeks to do its business.
It is also a really nice clear beer out of the fermenter. Hopefully the dry hops don't remove the clarity.

Beers,
Doc

 

[Finite]

holy shit, I just found this thread.

Doc,

your clearly in need of help but damn it im not going to give it to you. Go nuts mate....oh wait you have

 

[Kai]

The only 100+ IBU recipe I've done had an OG of 1.100, a strong mix of old and new hops of high and low coho, and at last tasting was still bitter enough to repaint your fence.

 

[THE DRUNK ARAB]

That is a huge amount of attenuation there Doc
Hope the women folk have recovered LOL!

I hope to venture into this territory tomorrow with the following.

Kegged the Inifinity + 1 tonight.
It had dropped to 1.008 and comes in at a nice 11.3% with the calculated IBU's of ~400.
Tastes awesome, smells awesome and looks awesome.
Having the neighbours over for drinks on Sunday. Should I service this puppy up ?
Will post a piccie on Friday when it is all carb'd up.

Holy attenuation, Doc.

Have your neighbours gone through the Lupulin Threshold Shift? :lol:

They are not even close to the threshold shift required for this baby. I have, and I think it will take me a while to get through the keg

Doc's Inifinity + 1 - Vital Stats.
OG 1.091 FG 1.008 IBU's 400+

Came off gas last night, and am having the first taste now.
You know that big in your face aroma of hops you get when you open the freezer you keep all your hops it ? That is the aroma of this puppy. The FG was 1.008, but the amount of body in the beer is amazing. More body that Amelie Mauresmo.
A real thick white head that you'd expect with all the protein in there, but still quite amazing being that it is 11%+. The head lasts to the end of the glass too. You don't really taste the alcohol, but there is a nice zing on the tongue, about 90 seconds after swallowing a mouthfull, when the hop taste fades just a little
A great orange colour, and quite cloudy at the moment. It may clear, but I'm not fussed either way on this beer.
All in all a very drinkable, yet extremely hoppy ale, that is everything I had hoped it would be. I can't think of how to make anything much more intense in the hoppiness scale at the moment, but I'm sure I'll come up with something :beerbang:

Doc

 

[Stuster]

Wow. Sounds amazing, Doc. The great head is probably due to the hops. :blink:

I seriously doubt that will get very clear with all the hops in there, but you never know. After a couple you'd probably think it was.

Now that Duff's upping the ante, I'm expecting to see you bring out the big guns in reply.

 

[Doc]

I was thinking of adding a third hopback to the setup, but I think two is really hitting the limit for hopbacks. Maybe a pre-hopback hop-whirlpool .......
