I have a double IPA recipe that comes out to 10%. I've not brewed a double IPA before so not sure what I want to do for the yeast. I like WY1450 in Rye Smile but 10% is the upper tolerance and not sure show close you can nudge up to that limit before running into problems.

I’ve only made one DNEIPA and used Verdant with no starter. Turned out good. Recently brewed a barley wine with Nottingham, again with no starter, and turned out great.
