Hop Hooligans Chef De Chef

Imperial IPA 11 º 50 IBU
Chef De Chef is a powerhouse Double IPA that pushes the boundaries of the style with an imposing 11% ABV. The sensory profile is dominated by a complex hop quartet; Strata and Meridian deliver a vibrant explosion of tropical passion fruit and sweet berry notes, while Centennial and Columbus anchor the experience with sharp citrus and deep, resinous dankness. Built on a clean foundation of Heidelberg malt and thinned with dextrose for drinkability, the beer offers a dry, bracing finish. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth supports the intense hop bitterness, creating a bold, heady experience defined by high modern hop saturation.
Appearance. Deep gold (7 SRM) with a moderate, white, persistent head and fine lacing. Generally clear, though a light haze from heavy dry-hopping is present.
Aroma. High intensity; pungent tropical notes of passion fruit and strawberry are followed by lemon zest and a heavy resinous dankness. A neutral, grainy malt character supports the hops; fermentation is clean with a noticeable but smooth, non-solventy alcohol presence.
Taste. Strong hop flavors of grapefruit, berry, and pine lead into a firm, aggressive bitterness that defines the palate. The malt presence is low and crackery, allowing the hops to remain the focus. It features a very dry finish with a lingering, clean hop bitterness and a smooth alcohol warmth.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, almost velvety texture. Moderate carbonation provides a gentle lift, while significant alcohol warmth is present without being harsh or astringent.

And we didn't stop there with our shenanigans alongside Firstep and Maktoob. We went to the other side of the spectrum, too, with a heavily hopped, monster of a Westcoast Triple IPA. 💥😵💫 CHEF DE CHEF. Read that as you will. 👉👈 Crisp and bitter with a big weedy punch up front, but balanced by canned mango and papaya, lime jellies, orange lozenges and floral-spicy resins coating the back end of it all. Strata, Meridian, Columbus and Centennial hops, most of them especially sourced for their punchy aromatics. 👊 It's got a 11% ABV that hides its bite, so tread carefully. You wouldn't want to have too much fun, right?
