Although the name sounds English, Imperial IPA is a term largely popularized
on the West Coast of the United States, and refers to a double IPA: a beer with
twice the malt and hops of traditional West Coast IPA (which is already a fairly
strong and hoppy beer). We have developed our Imperial IPA to be a strong, malty
ale with a full, almost resinous, hop character. This is an ale for those who
like a beer to be as flavorful as possible, for those who drink slowly and savor
each swallow.
Includes 14 pounds of our blended malt extract, flavoring and aromatic hops
(three additions), liquid ale yeast, and corn sugar for carbonation. Makes 5
gallons of strong ale with a starting gravity of at least 1.088. This one is
rated intermediate due to the large amount of malt included, which can cause
boil overs, particularly in pots smaller than 5 gallons. Ease of Brewing:
