I would order and reorder about 75% of my beers to date. The house porter is about perfect, and I've got an amazing imperial Belgian porter aging now. Frequently, I actually like my beer more than commercial. I hate piney ipas and am F
frequently not thrilled with the one-trick-pony aspect of many American commercial stouts and porter. I really prefer a complex, robust beer---no matter the style. That's really why I got into brewing. To make bolder beer. I finally nailed a great ipa, but it was a sort of kitchen sink endeavor. As of now, I've had the least success with pale ales, but that's because I recently started fixing my mash ph. It made my pale ales really start to shine.
I am with you on the complexity issue, however I want my beer complex but it has to be a balanced homogeneously taste.
Augustiner Helles for instance... or Kronenbourg blanc, Einstök white Ale ...
For my taste many of the Craftbrews are a terrible mixture of ingredients leading to a total failure in terms of "real beer"...
