I have almost enough saved up in my “man stash” to order a five gallon whiskey barrel and I am going to try for something crazy. I have achieved %10 ABV fairly easily a few times by oxygenating a few times during propogation and pitching a ton of yeast. I am assuming a yeast cake would be best for this or else a 2 gallon starter? not sure.
25 pounds pale
1 pound C80
1 pound chocolate malt
50 IBU millennium @60
50 IBU Chinook at @20 (for long lasting hop flavor)
8 oz columbus @ FO (steep for 30-40 minutes) for long lasting flavor/aroma
OG = 1.117
FG = ? (whenever the yeast dies)
ABV 12-15%

Mash at 148 overnight…super fermentable wort
Age in oak barrel for 1 year
Add extra yeast to bottling bucket and bottle with low carb levels
