What are the IBUs for my Bell's beer?

While IBU information can be very useful for home brewing a clone recipe, it does not always tell the entire story. We choose not to include this info because of the difference between absolute and perceived bitterness.

A great example is the difference between Two Hearted and Expedition Stout.

Two Hearted is a hop forward American IPA and has 60 IBUs. However, Expedition Stout, a Russian Imperial Stout, actually has 77 IBUs.

In fact, Expedition Stout has a higher IBU than Hopslam which is a double IPA.
