Every 16 is a commercial IPA clone attempt.

SWMBO's choice. I used the Beer Captured all-grain version, then substituted Pilsner LME for most of the Pilsen grain.

I almost switched this to picture on the Smuttynose site of Bernie outside of the brewery.

SWMBO Choice.

Sixteen brews later, Redhook ESB V with Pilsen base malt.

SWMBO's choice from Communism, Atheism, Free Lunch, p.162.
First time using Carafa II Dehusked, star anise, and licorice root.
First taste: 2 October 2021.

My experimental slot.

For regular weekly cooking I select a random cookbook, then a random recipe within that book. Last week, "Breakfast Pizza" from High-Altitude Breakfast by Nicole Hampton. This week was from Brew Your Own British Real Ale by Graham Wheeler and Roger Protz. If I planned on brewing Fuller's ESB, then I would have ended up on the HBT thread and adapted to my system. Instead I was to brew Wheeler's version because it was randomly selected, then adapted. First time using Optic or Target.
