Hi All,
It may split opinion, but I love strong beers, and with greater abv there seems to be stronger flavour and complexity. Some breweries such as Other Half and Wander Beyond, along with others, have pushed the modern style trends like milkshake IPAs and juicey NEIPAs into the 9-11% realms.
I appreicate it's down to taste, but I can't get enough of these and would love to brew some myself, has anyone has any clone style recipes?
I have no problem with AG BIAB IPAs and getting around 7% with great flavour, but not sure of how to get higher?
> Is it simply a case of increasing grain at the same ratios?
> Is a reiteration mash the way to go?
> is it purely down to the yeast? (I prefer working with dry for ease)
> I've heard oxygenation of the wort is how brewers get these higher limits, is it true? Ca it be done without this step?
> Do you have to consider other recipe aspects such as dry hop or additions as the gravity increases?
Any help, or knowledge from past experiences would be fantastic,
Cheers
