So after 3-4 evolutions of my house IPA which started as a commercial clone, me and SWMBO went back and did a side-by-side with the original commercial brew and we both agreed that my brew was far superior while still being similar. This got me thinking about a cool thread:
If you have a homebrew recipe that is similar, yet superior to a commercial version, post it here. It should read like: "If you like XXX (commercial), try this!" and link to the recipe. If you brew the recipe and agree, quote the post and +1 it. If you think the commercial version is better, quote it and -1 it. If the thread gets enough traction, I'll index them and we'll have a nice list of commercial brews and homebrew recipes that the community thinks is better.
It can be your personal recipe or it can be something you found. Just make sure you've actually brewed it and have done a side-by-side to confirm the homebrew is better.
