Vast in character, luscious & complex. Brewed with peat-smoked barley, this strong ale is brewed with organic juniper berries, vanilla & maple syrup. It's aged on oak and fermented with a blend of English & Belgian yeasts.

I don't recall the exact flavor profile so I don't know what direction to point you in for recipe proportions, exact yeast selections or hop varieties.
 
i think i have a copy of an extract, PM, and All grain recipe for this beer. it was definately in a book i checked out from the library and i am almost sure i copied that page. Send me an email at [email protected] and i will send it to you tonite when i get home.
 
An 11% extract beer sounds like it could be difficult to stir. Or ferment. You'll probably want to make sure to build a good solid starter for your yeast.

Wowza. Never heard of this beer before, I wish DFH distributed here.
 
Immort ale is pretty decent, as long as you can manage to BLOCK the mental association with bandaids :p But, as that can be a little tricky, it's definitely not high on my list...
 
WTF. Forrest has a kit for everything, doesn't he? Huh. :)


No kidding. I noticed they recently updated all their kits and there selection is awesome. The Immort ale was one of the new ones i saw listed on there.

Just cuddled up in bed with a tulip of this as a nightcap... soooo goooood. I'd love to be able to recreate it at home.
 
I know this is over a year ago, but how did this turn out? I'm looking to maybe try my hand at cloning this thing. I have absolutely no idea how much peat is too much. To me, the beer isn't too heavy on the peat...
