If you're like me, you started off with all sorts of crazy experiments. Lime-basil ales, coffee beers, bourbon beers, ginger beers...essentially, every other brew was in the Specialty category. Over the past year or so, though, I've come around to a realization that, to be a better brewer, it's not only about perfecting your skills, it's about brewing as many different styles as you can muster and really getting a wide-ranging feel for what brewing is about. That, and every time I listed to a Jamil Show episode for a style I haven't done, it makes me wanna run downstairs and brew it. Hell, I've brewed 74 batches and probably only made it halfway through the BJCP!
So, I'm just wondering, first off, who out there is, like me, currently (or planning on) brewing all the styles over time? Second, is there anyone who has already run the gamut?
I'm not and have never been a real slave to style, but I really feel like this is a great goal for me to have. Who's with me?
