Cigar City Humidor series IPA

So who's taking it?

F- it, I will go if nobody else is going to.

Style + adjunct. I will start off with a hint: it's an American style

Not super close, but not super far off.

Nope... that sounds gross (but I wouldn't knock it till I've tried it)

No to Rye as well.

Nevermind, mobile had me looking at the wrong pic.

Apricot IPA

Nope.

Time for a nice hint to make this a little easier (the adjunct will be hard enough to guess on its own)

Here's the hint:

Imperial IPA

Adjunct: The Force?

Cedar aged Imperial IPA

Midi-chlorian Amber Ale?

Oak Aged Imperial Amber

The style has been mentioned, but not the adjunct.

FWIW, I like to think of yeast as midi-chlorians. The more beer you drink, the more powerful you become.

Sunday brew day, I became more powerful than you can possibly imagine!

Strawberry Imperial IPA?

I have learned that there is a fine line between brewing a fine beer and being as drunk as a skunk. Measurements get fudged when you push it too far one way.

Oatmeal imperial IPA

Ginger Imperial IPA

Nope to all so far

Lemon Imperial IPA?

Hey you didn't steal it, it was my negligence that lost my spot I'm just happy I finally got one !!!!

Still nobody has it... I guess I'm breaking new grounds on this one.

Darth Vader is Dutch for Dark Father, I'm going to guess Imperial Dutch Process Cocoa Imperial IPA.

That or some sort of eucalyptol-bay-laurel leaves

Best answer I've ever seen on this thread

Still nobody's got it... it seems I really am breaking new grounds with this challenge. Have I let it percolate long enough to give a really big hint? To spill the beans, as it were?

I was beginning to worry my hints were too subtle :cross:

Damn, sneaking in before the big hint!

What does Darth Vader have to do with it? Was it Dutch coffee?
