Your House Beer

Holy SHi@ im drunk

I'm always mixing my brews up, however my 2 heart clone goes so fast whenever it's in the lineup that I have to rebrew it often.

Hey....... I have that beer on tap right now too I either use that hop combo or sometimes just use "7 C'S" hop blend for my "house APA." Just getting ready to pour one

++1 My house brew is a APA using just 2 row and a small amount of 20L or 40L crystal with some C hop combination. Last batch was Columbus, Centennial, Citra, Cascade and Amarillo. Five gallons now fermenting using 7C's blend. I rarely brew exactly the same thing twice.

English Brown Ale has been my house brew. I usually either have a batch tapped, conditioning, or fermenting. I brew other types but it's my staple. I was buying Newcastle which is what made me realize I can make better myself.

For me it's ESB and a regular English bitter, also an amber ale for those that don't drink much ales

My go to is pale ale malt, white wheat, and a touch of caravienne hopped with Citra using only fwh, flameout, and dry hop. I feel lke the fwh gives just enough bitterness for a 4.2% beer but its smoother and avoids the cattyness citra can have. Every now and then I will do a one off batch and change the dry hops, like Zyhthos of Falconer's Flight.

Coconut is basically the hypest beer ingredient... I have a coconut stout I've brewed a couple times and I always try to have some on hand.

There's nothing always on tap. I do have Alt on about half the time.

I don't keep any particular beer always on tap, but I almost always have some Apfelwein on tap. I don't drink it very often, but my wife and my friends love it. It's easy and cheap to make so it's easy to have on hand year round.

I echo this. Currently have 3 taps, always have Apfelwein on hand for those who dont like whatever else is on tap. Recently the other two have been full of stouts (I have been on a stout kick recently). Otherwise I like to keep some sort of Pale Ale/IPA on hand and whatever else I am feeling.

I want to put in another tap or two but in order to do it I need to buy another faucet for one more or upgrade my gas system for 2.

The only beer I brew repeatedly (6x per year) is my Cascade/Citra hopped American Pale Ale. Definitely a house staple here.

I have a Kolsch that's always on tap. The wife likes it and Its easy & cheap to brew.

I try to keep a fat tire clone on hand. Most of my friends/family don't like "dark" beers (don't get me started on that phrase) and fat tire is pretty mellow. I'm a hop head and like hard core hop additions and it's a little much for most "regular" people

I always keep a Farmhouse Ale on hand. No matter the season, it is nice.
The stronger version is in my recipes.
I tweak it to make a "Petite" from time to time.
I bottle with Brett sometimes and put those up.

I have made minor adjustments to the base grain from things I have learned from Jolly Pumkin, Crooked Stave, Jester King, ect. Once i decide my perfect combo i will post it, but the base recipe is a winner in my book.
