Notes: (This is the recipe that Vinnie himself gave in an interview found in zymurgy)

Directions
Mash grains at 151-152° F (66-67° C) for an hour or until starch conversion is complete.
Mash out at 170° F (77° C) and sparge. Collect 8 gallons (30 L) of runoff, stir in dextrose,
and bring to a boil. Add hops as indicated in the recipe. After a 90 minute boil, chill wort
to 67° F (19° C) and transfer to fermenter. Pitch two packages of yeast or a yeast starter
and aerate well. Ferment at 67° F (19° C) until fermentation activity subsides, then rack
to secondary. Add first set of dry hops on top of the racked beer and age 7-9 days, then
add the second set. Age five more days then bottle or keg the beer.

Extract Substitution
Substitute 6.5 lb (3.0 kg) of light dry malt extract for two-row malt. Due to the large
hop bill for this recipe, a full wort boil is recommended. Steep grains in 1 gallon (3.8 L)
of water at 165° F (74° C) for 30 minutes, then remove and rinse grains with hot water.
Stir in dextrose and top up kettle to 8 gallons (30 L), and bring to a boil. Add hops as
indicated in the recipe. After a 90 minute boil, chill wort to 67° F (19° C) and transfer to
fermenter. Pitch two packages of yeast or a yeast starter and aerate well. Ferment at 67°
F (19° C) until fermentation activity subsides, then rack to secondary. Add first set of dry
hops on top of the racked beer and age 7-9 days then add the second set. Age five more
days then bottle or keg the beer

Notes: This recipe turned out AMAZING!!! So, I got frozen berries from Trader Joe's and they were added in secondary but smashing them up first with a potato masher in a bowl with very little water and the malt extract dissolved. They malt extract was added as a afterthought as I did not get great efficiency and figured the water content from the berries would dilute the beer's ABV and body, but next time it will be excluded. Also the strawberries completely overshadowed the kiwis and the kiwis were a bitch to peel so next time they will be excluded as well. And careful with the yeast cause I got too much clove and no banana, I'll probably use a smaller starter and higher fermentation temp next time.
It is the perfect beer to give those anti-beer women who you are trying to get drunk and into their pants, hence the name- although it has multiple meanings.

The molasses was full flavor (e.g. stage 2 molasses, after light but before blackstrap).

I was unable to find unsweetened Cacao nibs anywhere, even Whole Foods, so switched up to the same amount of unsweetened cocoa powder.

Used Peet's Coffee Major Dickason's Blend for flameout addition.

Notes: Original recipe by Beerfan. I just scaled it down. These are their notes:

if your like me and love hops just add an ounce of Cascade to your keg, let it slow carbonate for a 3 or 4 days then take it out and enjoy a great beer!

Adjust your caramel 60L and shoot for an SRM of 8.

------------------------------
This is a nice beer that falls somewhere on the american pale ale family or the india session ale (ISA) category. Very light body with a big hoppy nose that isn't overly bitter. The vienna is essential to the complexity of this beer, so don't substitute it. Also, reduce consider reducing the dry hopping by .5 oz as the hops slightly mask the clean base malt.
Also, different yeast strains might work well with this beer, perhaps try using a highly attenuative british strain for a more complex flavor profile (something this beer could use depending on the season you brew it ie. summer stay crisp and clean, winter get weird).
