Hey all. I always write my own recipes. I am planning to do a holiday spiced ale to give to people as xmas gifts this year using the usual holiday spices (Cinnamon, clove, nutmeg). Now I have made some off the wall flavored styles before. but this will be my first attempt with these spices. So i've been trying to decide which base style would work best with these spices. I was thinking maybe a spiced Porter would be good, but I don't know how well the holiday spices would stand out against something that dark.
What do most people do with beers like this? Amber, Porter, Dark, Light? Any input is greatly appreciated.
I will also be making a similarly spiced sparkling cider for the people on my list who do not drink alcoholic beverages.
