When we were talking about the 999 brew, there was some discussion of a blonde dopplebock. I'd still like to consider something "special" like that, although I know not everyone can lager. A wee heavy is ok, I guess, but not really what I think of as a commerative type brew.

I hear ya. I'm still not 100% about it myself. Blonde Doppelbock, likewise, I am just a little unsure of, it's another I really don't drink often, or like drinking as much as a RIS. What about a strong English IPA? Go old school with it, the real across-the-continent strong stuff?
What other styles are fun? I mean, I guess a Rochefort 10 clone is okay, but... again. I'd also do a Saison/Funkhouse/etc, or a Golden Strong.

I've been dying to do a wee heavy. I recently discovered McEwan's and I love it.

A Wee Heavy isn't Special 
Try my http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f65/traq-air-owl-wee-heavy-59774/ and tell me a bigger one would not be special |

Thank you, Chriso. It's always nice when someone knows what you're trying to say.

I don't want that much cohesion. Why do you think I started brewing?
