The beer listing describes more than nine grains without naming them. In a 2022 interview, brewer Kelly Montgomery described alternatives for Higher Purpose: Challenger, Magnum or Bravo for bittering, followed by East Kent Goldings or Fuggles. He also described Irish ale or Whitbread English yeast, with a later Whitbread and Chico blend. These alternatives do not identify the current batch, so hops and yeast arrays remain empty.
