Devil's Advocate here...(and admitting I haven't read all the pages)
Would taking two, three or more commercial brews and blending them together all mad scientist-like to make a new better brew be acceptable?
Or would that be cheating?
You can do it, but it can't be entered into a competition. I hold ground that blending is ok as long its with other homebrew. That homebrew doesn't even have to be brewed by you! See olllllo's post on assistant brewers.
A commercial brewery could arguably enter a blends of other commercial beer into the GABF compeition. Just like wines or blended whisky.
