Ok i'm going nuts I just found a beer I absolutely love, but I can't pick out the flavors. I was hoping I could get some help on cloning up a recipe here if anyone has tasted it. All I know is its 9.7% abv and 94Ibu.

I have never had this, but if I was guessing, they use a healthy dose of columbus at 60 minutes, and most of the centennial and cascade later, 20 minutes to flameout. I imagine this should have 6-8 oz in the boil.

They also have 4 dryhops listed, you have none. I would do .75-1.00 oz of each they have listed.

Lastly, they oak it. I would probably use a lighter roast oak in the secondary. Dryhop after oaking

Just found this out of curiosity to see if anyone else liked it. I love this beer myself, and cloned up a recipe and brewed it. It's dry-hopping in secondary right now:

Hopville . "Hawp Kwisis" Imperial IPA Recipe

It tastes great already - hoping to keg it around Christmas time, and I'll see if I can find some cans of the original to see how it compares.

Just an update - I just put this on the gas 2 days ago and I'm waiting for it to fully carb. Even with the light carbonation, I might come out and say this is the best beer I've brewed to date. I dry-hopped with 4oz of pellet hops, and it was aged on oak spirals as per the brewery's version. I also first-wort hopped this beer, which I've not attempted before. The hop character is POW, but all the nice flavors you want are there with a decent malt kick at the end and just a touch of hoppy bitterness. Once it's been on the gas for a couple more weeks I'll do a proper tasting and really give overall impressions and suggest a tweak or two if need be. I love beer.
