I just put a redux of my Brown Biscuit ale in the fermenter tonight and started thinking. It's a very tasty brown ale, but with the biscuit malt and special B in there... this would probably be good with a Belgian yeast. Maybe a little sugar.
That got me wondering. How often do folks play with their recipes and bend them into different styles as opposed to doing whole new recipes?
It seems to make sense. If you think you have something good to start with, why not use it as a base and change parts of it?
I know it won't work to do everything you want. Beer styles are just too varied. But it was just something that was bouncing around in my head.
