I'll just give away the answer...

Category 14C: IIPA

Does this look similar?

Whoever wants to post next, go ahead!

Ok I gave it an hour. Since this one is so simple I am going to require multiple things. Here is the first hint. A SMaSH starting with 14 pounds of grain for a 4 gallon batch.

Imperial...

Belgian strong ale

Imperial Brown Ale

my official guess...imperial munich dunkel smash

There is nothing imperial, double, extra, etc about it. Guesses are open again!

Brown porter

not sure what your efficiency is, or if the beer falls under a standard bjcp category...but i'll guess english ipa

Since it seems no one has woken up to play, I will give another hint and you can all guess again. Each picture above has chronological significance and I am looking for two answers here. They are both independant BJCP categories (although I don't need specific substyles), but are rarely put together. One is the original recipe style, and the other is a process.

That is a 5 gal carboy in the last picture...

flanders ipa

Sour IPA

Since you two are the only ones playing currently, you both have it half right...but MJ has the broad term I was looking for. If you put the two styles I am looking for together the style would equal 36.

you have a pic emjay?

Yes, I'll put it up in a little bit when I get to my PC

Sour strong ale? LOL

Oops, it is not an IPA and my last post was giving the final hint

Hahah yup! It was my "German Barleywine" As I liked to call it. a munich-hallertau SMaSH (this is what happens when I get a brand new 55 pound sack of munich). It got stuck at 1.052 so last night I pitched 645 Brett C, I blended it with a gallon of soured second runnings, and topped it up with a stout that was an equal fail.

Its funny to not worry about sanitization until AFTER you handle the beer for a change

screw it...

honey malt is in the grist

Ipa

American Amber

There should be some kind of rule... if somebody goes past 8pm PST (now) they lose their shot at it.
