Perennial Artisan Ales in St. Louis, Missouri, brews some of the finest Belgian-inspired ales in North America. However, it grew its national following and influenced a host of other breweries with a totally different kind of beer: Abraxas—a big, adjunct-laded imperial stout inspired by Mexican chocolate.

In this 56-minute video course, Phil Wymore—Perennial's cofounder and brewmaster—shares the approach, ingredients, and methods behind the brewery's big stouts and other strong, high-gravity beers. Among other topics, Wymore covers:

  • water and hops considerations
  • careful intentionality for big malt bills
  • building a base imperial stout recipe
  • choosing and employing various adjuncts
  • yeast and high-gravity fermentation challenges
  • filtering and carbonation

And much more, including recipes.
