Since I have started homebrewing I have retraced the familiar territory to see what beers I still do like.
Guiness stays. Smithwick's stays. Firestone-Walker Pale stays. Fat Tire stays. My favorite "small" brewery is still Rogue. Every other beer I ever drank in my life was apparently swill. I have brewed a bunch of Brit and US ales, one dopplebock racked to 2° today.
I just finished a Duvel; I have a Chimay white(8%) and and Trappists Roquefort 6 in the fridge.
The Duvel I will be cloning and I picked up the ingredients for BrewPastor's 08-08-08 RIS today. I have one gallon pilots of five different meads going and 5gal of Apfelwine that weighed in at 1.008 and falling this morning. And I tried a HB wit today, first wit I ever liked. It was "Wit Men Can't Jump" from the SA Longshot competition.
I like the Duvel enough to go looking for some Lambics, pretty much right now.
What else do I need to try? I looked in to making sake, but I don't love it enough to bother with all that.
TIA
