Are there any beers/yeasts/recipes that prefer warm-ish fermenting? I have an IPA going right now but it is always wrapped in wet towels. THX

Just fiinished Stan Hieronymus (author of Brew Like a Monk) podcast on belgians: http://www.basicbrewing.com/index.php?page=60. They pitch cool and allow the heat of fermentation to warm them up in a controlled fashion over several days. They are not supposed to have fusel alcohols but many brewed here do as we pitch hot and ferment hot.
