Partially inspired by the Brew Masters episode last night, and partially by an amazing Great Divide Brewing Co. oak aged beer that I had recently (can't remember what style), I want to age my next brew on wood chips.
What beers go well with wood chip aging? Dark beers, light beers, lagers, ales? I just brewed a stout so I don't think I want to do this with a similarly dark beer. I was planning on doing the NB Nut Brown Ale next, would that pair well? I'm still doing extract brewing. Is wood aging a waste of time with extract?
I'll have to do some research on the actual process before I do it, but any wood chip aging tips or advice are welcome as well.
Thanks!
