I am a fan of Big Beers, ie, IPAs and Dopplebocks. My question is : With the federal limit of alcohol being 5% by weight or 6.3% ABV, are we as homebrewers strictly limited to certain styles ? The BJCP chart shows some styles completely over and above these alcohol limits.
Has anyone who has entered brewing competitions ever entered a beer over the 6.3% ABV ? If so, how is this possible ? I'm just curious about the legality of brewing my favorite beers. Thanks in advance for any replies.
