Notes: This is a transcript from Kristen England's blogpost.

Another very short explanation. What the Youngers logs have in extraordinary details for their brewing, all of the beers are very very simple. So, on to this awesome double IPA thing. A wee heavy little beastie indeed!

Ingredients
Grist – I haven’t used Golden Promise in quite a long time so I decided it was about time. You can absolutely use Maris Otter or really any other wonderful Englishy malt you’d like. I have come to really like two very different types of pale malts. My very favorite is the MFB pale malt. I’ve found that if you had to have one single malt to do really absolutely anything in the realm of beer, this would be more than adequate. Bitter, IPA, Pils, etc. On the other end of the spectrum, my other favorite malt for different reasons (mostly cost and its ability to play second fiddle extremely well) is Great Western pale malt. You’ll find a massive amount of American breweries use it for everything. I think it is very nice and does a great job, just not as good at everything that the MFB pale malt.

Hops – This beer, as can be seen, is about 3:1 or 4:1 Czech: English hops. The English ones can really be anything but I’d stay with a low alpha variety for the amount of greenery you need to add in. As for the Czech, I used 100% Saaz. Czech Saaz at that. Pivní Filosof, Evan Rail, Alistair Reece and I had a great conversation just a week or so ago about the ability to make a big hoppy beer using 100% Czech Saaz. This is pretty much that beer. The thought is/was that one can’t do it. You just can’t get that bitterness. This, is entirely untrue. What you will find is that the bitterness is very different. Its much less harsh. Additionally, I find the aroma is much much higher on this beer (all low AA% hop IPAs even) simply due to the fact of the vast amount of hop that goes in. More essential oils and such. If you need another reason to make this beer, do so for that fact. A big, crisp, dry IPA thingy with a butte tonne of low alpha hops.

Yeast – I really like the dry Nottingham for this beer. It dries out extremely well. Finishes quick. Its cheap! That being said, use what you like. A yeast cake would be good for those of you that don’t do starters well. Its very important you get enough yeast into this bugger to dry it out.

Notes: Hoppy Belgian Strong Pale Ale focused on brewing with Golden Promise malt, the new El Dorado (Spanish for "The Golden One") hops and the more traditional Brewer's Gold hops. First Gold, a UK dual-purpose hop, was chosen as a late addition/knockout hop for its spicy and slightly floral notes, matching well with the esters produced during primary fermentation.

Aiming for a resinous, fruity and dry profile with some of the traditional Belgian character; a soft yet fairly-full mouthfeel should result from the use of oats and wheat in conjunction with a traditional Belgian yeast blend. This is kind of influenced by Idle Hands' "hopification" of traditionally non-hoppy styles (hoppy hefe and hoppy tripel were both amazing and intense, keeping the best, traditionalist qualities of the original styles and adding some new world flair).

4/16/16: This one's been a long time coming. I switched the hop additions around a lot to focus on El Dorado as an aroma hop instead of a bittering hop. Doing our sacch rest now.

4/23/16: racked onto 1oz El Dorado

4/30/16: sample was great with 1wk dry hop. Forgot yeast, so did not bottle. Heavy phenols up front, great belgian character, soft, medium body. Hints of tropical hops in the finish which become more noticeable after repeated sips, and phenols calm down a bit.

5/25/16: So this ended up with 1 week in primary, 2 weeks in secondary w/ dry-hop (El Dorado). Has been conditioning in bottles for about 2 and a half more weeks at this point. Just opened my first bottle to enjoy at home (had a bottle this past weekend while at Pat's place and posted about it on FB but needed to update here).

Pours a beautiful deep orange/golden color with an absolutely massive head with spectacular retention. With a head this milky, frothy and bone white, this reminds me a lot of a classic Duvel pour, which makes me proud. Lacing is mild but appears tiered when it does come about. Body is opaque, though effervescent carbonation can be seen around the edges of the glass if you look hard enough.

Nose is bright tropical fruit (pineapple/papaya/guava, mostly), mild grassy notes, solid amounts of Belgian funk, a bit of vanilla and honeyed malt. Not a trace of alcohol to be found, and at almost 9%, that's dangerous. In other words, this smells like a perfect Belgian strong pale ale to me.

The palate is mostly rich phenolic Belgian yeast, chewy honey-leaning malt notes and juicy, bright hops. Lots of clove-y aspects intertwined with pineapple and papaya, structured on top of an almost-doughy malt/yeast combo. Very big body on this beer. Definitely not a light tasting one, but it was never really meant to be. That said, the playful hop notes and intense tropical fruit flavors make this an enjoyable warm weather beer if you don't mind the high ABV. Carbonation is medium-high.

If we brew this again, I'm suggesting several changes. The hop bill seems pretty spot-on, other than the fact that we should probably double the dry-hop quantity. It probably would've been better to just do one knockout addition of 1 oz and then do 2 oz in the dry-hop. I feel the aromatic elements of El Dorado could be pushed even more, though they do come out here for sure. I would also say we could play with the malt bill a bit, perhaps utilizing Golden Promise as the whole base malt instead of splitting with 2-row and pilsner. Oats and wheat helped provide structure here, for sure, but I'd also like to see what this is like with a bit more of each. That's more of a weird desire for experimentation than a necessity, but regardless... glad we have so many bottles of this creamy, rich, Belgian yeast-influenced tropical-fruit-cocktail in a bottle!
