I was trying to brew a Pliny the Younger clone this weekend but due to a mechanical malfunction with UPS they said my hop extract wont be here until next week. I have a 3L starter of 1056 all ready to go with 350 billion or so count in it.
I wont be able to brew the pliny clone for a week or so and I want to brew something this weekend. I have never made a beer over 7% so I don't have much experience with it. I was hoping you guys could give me some tried and true recipes I could try to do this weekend. I'm running to the LHBS tomorrow to pick up whatever ingredients I need. I know I could sort through the recipe database but I was wanting to here some thoughts on what you guys would highly recommend. (for instance if anyone looks for a BMC type beer everyone recommends BM's Cream of Three Crops) I'm not particular to style just not an IPA or anything real hoppy, thats what my Pliny clone will be fulfilling. What are some of your favorite high ABV beers to make?
