Collaboration beer brewed with our good friend Steven Pauwels from Boulevard Brewing. Inspired by the style developed by Social Kitchen & Brewery, our own take on the Brut IPA attenuated bone dry (negative 0.2 Plato and much further than we anticipated), resulting in an Imperial Brut that shares a lot in common with its champagne namesake thanks to the higher ABV and carbonation level over 4 volumes of CO2. We used Extra Pale Premium Pilsner malt from Weyermann to keep the color light, then added amyloglucosidase enzyme for full attenuation and Clarity Ferm for gluten reduction. For hops, we only utilized whirlpool and dry hop additions and used Citra, El Dorado, Mosaic and Idaho 7 at a rate of nearly 7 lbs/bbl.
