If you like the new Flying Dog Imperial IPA and want to brew it yourself, good news! I emailed the head brewer and he was gracious enough to give me a recipe. Here it is:
Hey Justin,
Glad you got a chance to try The Truth! I can certainly help you out with a recipe so you can create it at home:
Grist:
Pale Brewers malt 80-90%
Munich 5-9%
White Wheat 4-7%
Acidulated Malt 1-4%
C-40 1-3%
90 minute boil-
At 90 min Use a clean bittering variety and shoot for about 70-80 IBU
At 30 add CTZ for about 20-40 more IBU
Use a combo of Citra and Amarillo in the last 5 minutes (.75 oz total), in the whirlpool(1.25 oz total) and for the dry hop. (2oz total)
These hop amounts are for a 5 gallon batch.
Use a clean fermenting ale strain around 65-70 degrees
Starting gravity should be 18.3 plato
Final gravity should be around 1.5-2.0 plato
Mimic classic Burton on Trent water profile
Cheers,
Ben Clark
Head Brewer
He didn't specify a mash temp and time, but 149-150F for 60-90 minutes should work.
Cheers!!!
